We'll be back with more live coronavirus updates tomorrow morning.
And the UK has reported another 12,364 cases of coronavirus and a further 1,052 deaths within 28 days of a positive test - bringing that total to 113,850
The New and Emerging Respiratory Virus Threats Advisory Group (NERVTAG) - a group of scientists which advise government - have classed a variant first identified in Bristol - the Kent variant with a mutation - as a "variant of concern".
It’s not surprising that officials are adding this new
version of coronavirus to their "variants of concern" list.
Targeted testing is already under way to spot any new cases linked to the 21
that have already been found, mostly in the south west of England.
This new incarnation of the virus is the Kent variant "plus". It has the same
N501Y mutation as the one that triggered lockdown - a genetic change that
scientists say lets the virus spread more easily. But it also has an extra
mutation called E484K.
E484K is what experts are worried about for vaccine efficacy. It is also seen
in the South Africa and Brazil variants of concern.
A cluster of another variant in Liverpool is different again. It has got the
E484K mutation but is an iteration of an earlier version of the pandemic virus
rather than the Kent one.
Inevitably, more variants will continue to emerge. The challenge is to make
sure vaccines are a good match to keep us ahead in this race against the virus.
Experts are confident that the vaccines being used today
will still save lives and stop severe illness from Covid.
'Serious implications' for travel industry amid new quarantine measures
As we've reported today, a series of measures are to come into force on Monday to prevent new variants of the coronavirus from being imported into the UK.
The changes will be applied differently across the UK - in Scotland everyone arriving from abroad will be affected, while in England and Wales hotel quarantine will be mandatory only for passengers who have recently travelled to a country hit by a new variant.
The health secretary also confirmed that all international arrivals would need to take two PCR tests on days two and eight of their quarantine.
Those who violate the rules will face fines and potentially up to 10 years in prison.
The travel and tourism industries have said they understand why the measures are necessary, but have called on the government to do more to support firms and protect jobs.
A spokeswoman for travel trade organisation Abta said that requiring passengers to pay for multiple tests once leisure travel is restarted would have "serious cost implications" and "hurt demand".
She also urged ministers to "develop a roadmap to reopen travel".
Nigeria lab closed over fake Covid certificates

Nigeria’s Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) says it has closed an unnamed test centre in the capital Abuja that was issuing fake Covid-19 certificates to travellers.
Director general of the NCDC, Chikwe Ihekweazu, said they had found evidence that the lab was collecting samples and money from unsuspecting travellers, but failing to test them.
They issued certificates claiming they had tested negative for the virus, enabling them to travel. Mr Ihekweazu added that a full list of accredited labs was available on the NCDC’s website and encouraged members of the public to only get tested at centres on the list.
He said they were working on a platform where every lab in Nigeria could publish their test results which could then be easily verified by airlines or other countries wishing to check whether a result was genuine. He did not specify when this platform would be ready.
Authorities in Nigeria recently suspended flights from the Emirates airline because the carrier wanted passengers from Nigeria to take a rapid Covid-19 test four hours before flying, in addition to the standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test.
Premier Inn probes lockdown staff party claim in Wales
No hotels have yet confirmed whether rooms have been booked.
Transport Secretary Michael Matheson said there were approximately 1,600 Scottish arrivals in the last week of January, and numbers fell to 730 in the first week of February.
He said: "The number of travellers coming to Scotland directly is reducing and I expect these restrictions to reduce arrivals yet further.
"These measures will be backed with criminal offences as usual. The stronger approach we are taking are necessary and appropriate."
Zoos struggling in pandemic, charity warns

Animals are at risk of dying unless the government changes its Covid-19 funding for zoos, a charity has warned.
The Zoo Animals Fund was created by the government to help zoos facing financial trouble in the pandemic with £100m available.
In a letter to the prime minister, the British and Irish Association for Zoos and Aquariums (Biaza) says the fund has "failed to provide" adequate support.
It claims many zoos are unable to access the money.
A spokeswoman from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) told Radio 1 Newsbeat the government understood challenges faced by zoos and aquariums.
"That is why we have set up the Zoo Animals Fund on top of the other support available - to ensure that those facing severe financial difficulties can continue to provide the best possible care for their animals."
Further surge Covid testing being deployed in Lambeth, south London
Further Covid testing is being deployed in Lambeth, south London, where the South African variant has been found.
The surge testing and genomic sequencing will be carried out in the SE27 0, SE27 9 and SW16 2 postcodes.
People living within these areas are being urged to take a Covid-19 test this week, whether they are showing symptoms or not.
People with symptoms should book a test in the usual way while others should visit their council website.
Meanwhile the surge testing carried out in Woking is now complete and further data will be provided in due course, the Department of Health and Social Care said.
Mass testing - or surge testing - is taking place across various parts of England to help stop the spread of new, more infectious strains of Covid-19.
The South Africa variant and a new mutation of the Kent variant are those currently being targeted.
The French lunch hour - famous as a bastion of the French way of life - is under threat.
The government says it’s planning to pass a new decree allowing workers to eat at their desks, a practice officially banned in the country’s labour law. But is this concession to changing times all down to coronavirus?
Like many cultural ideals, the leisurely and elaborate French lunch-break is often defended more in theory than in practice. Even before Covid, the daily queues outside sandwich shops were just as daunting as the waiters straightening tables on café terraces.
In fact, several polls suggest that a majority of French workers have been eating their lunch in the office for years.
But, long under siege, the concept of the pause-déjéuner is now under attack from Covid as well.
With restaurants and cafes closed - except for take-aways or deliveries - and workplace canteens rife with new restrictions, many people have little option but to eat their lunch at their desks - or even, according to one report, eating in isolation in their cars.
The idea that eating at your desk was officially banned has been greeted with surprise - even derision - here. Eye-rolling at France’s impenetrable labour laws is another workplace tradition, and there’s comfort in hanging on to at least some of them.
Peru starts vaccination campaign amid second wave

The first doses of Sinopharm vaccines arrived late on SundayImage caption: The first doses of Sinopharm vaccines arrived late on Sunday
Peru has started its Covid vaccination campaign after the first consignment of 300,000 Sinopharm vaccines arrived on Sunday.
The South American country is in the midst of a second wave of the pandemic. With the hospitals close to full capacity, the authorities have decided that medical staff should be among the first to be vaccinated.
On Tuesday morning local time, Josef Vallejos, the chief of the intensive care unit at a hospital in Lima, received the first jab.
Members of the military, security guards and election workers will also be given priority ahead of the general election scheduled for 11 April.
Peru has had almost 1.2 million confirmed cases and more than 42,000 people have died.
Dr Susan Hopkins, from Public Health England, says 170 cases of the South African variant have been identified so far, including 18 that are not linked to travel.
'Focus needs to shift to Huanan market supply chains'
More on that fact-finding mission to China. Dr Peter Daszak, who is part of the WHO team looking into the origins of Covid-19, said "the supply chains to Huanan Seafood Market were extensive".
Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan was linked to early cases of coronavirus and was quickly closed by the authorities.

It was unlikely that the group, in its politically-charged mission, would be able to pinpoint the source of the pandemic a year after it began.
But, after visiting the Wuhan Institute of Virology, they have closed the lid on a controversial theory that coronavirus came from a lab leak or was made by scientists.
Their search for clues also included a visit to the now-famous wet market in Huanan - selling fish, meat and live wild animals - that was linked to some of the first human cases.
The team say the virus may have jumped from animals to humans, but they don't have the proof yet.
Possible carriers include bats and pangolins, but tests so far have yet to find convincing evidence for this.
Another line of investigation is whether the virus could have spread through imported frozen food. The hunt for the origin will continue.
Lifting NI restrictions 'needs 70-80% vaccinated'
PA MediaCopyright: PA Media
Covid-19 restrictions will not be fully lifted in Northern Ireland until 70 to 80% of people have been vaccinated, the chief medical officer says.
So far, about 22% of adults have received at least a first dose of a vaccine, Dr Michael McBride told a media briefing.
If the rate of case numbers keeps falling, "we will hopefully be able to do some things this summer like we did last summer", he says.
Over time new variants such as those which have emerged in South Africa and Brazil could be detected in NI, however, he says "they may not become the dominant strain".
Patricia Donnelly, who heads up NI's vaccine programme, says arrangements are being made for clinically vulnerable 16 to 18-year-olds to receive the Pfizer vaccine within weeks.
Coronavirus in the UK in graphs
Here are some graphs to show today's coronavirus figures.
Although deaths are still high, they are coming down - and so are case numbers compared to last Tuesday.
We can see that if the rate of vaccinations keeps going the way it is, the government will surpass its goal of reaching 15m people by mid-February.

South Africa vaccine rollout halted

South Africa's decision to pause its rollout of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine after a study showed "disappointing" results against its new Covid-19 variant has left the nation in shock.
An small preliminary trial, involving some 2,000 people, found that the vaccine offered "minimal protection" against mild and moderate cases.
One and half million doses of the jab had been bought for healthcare workers and they were due to start getting their vaccinations this week.
Frontline workers have been left feeling anxious. Siviwe Gwarube, head of health for the main opposition Democratic Alliance, said the setback left them vulnerable to a third wave.
South Africa has recorded almost 1.5 million coronavirus cases and more than 46,000 deaths since the pandemic began - a higher toll than any other country on the continent.
"I had a lot of hope that the vaccine would change the situation we're in as a country," a young male medic, who asked to remain anonymous, told the BBC.
"A lot of people are losing jobs. I'm a medical student and we are really exposed to Covid-19. It was a blow for me when I heard that the efficacy of the vaccine was lower."
Cameroon conspiracy theory video removed from Facebook
Samuel Lando
BBC Monitoring
A video in which a Cameroonian
politician makes a series of false claims about Covid-19 vaccines and the
coronavirus pandemic has been shared thousands of times on Facebook.
Andre Banda Kani - who is the
chairman of the Nouveau Mouvement Populaire (NMP), a minor political party in
Cameroon - repeats baseless conspiracy theories that Western coronavirus
vaccines cause genetic changes and contain “microchips”.
Kani falsely alleges that vaccination campaigns for Covid-19 are part of a “globalist” plot to reduce the world's population, led by influential figures like Bill Gates.

Here’s what you need to know this evening:
What's the Bristol variant?

Premier Inn probes lockdown staff party claim in Wales
Hotel chain Premier Inn has said it is investigating an allegation that staff broke Covid-19 lockdown rules by having a party at one of its hotels.
A photo showing 10 people lined up in a restaurant area has been published in a newspaper in Wales.
The Daily Post said it understood the photo was taken at a leaving party at the Premier Inn in Holyhead, on Anglesey, on 29 January.
The company said its Welsh hotels are shut in line with government guidance.
Premier Inn said it had "clear safety procedures in place for our team members to follow".
What's Scotland's new hotel quarantine plan?
Everyone arriving in Scotland on an international flight from next Monday will have to quarantine in a hotel for 10 days.
The Scottish government said it would be "block booking" 1,300 rooms at six hotels near the country's airports.
The some £1,750 cost of the stay will have to be borne by passengers themselves.
A similar scheme will operate in other parts of the UK, but unlike Scotland, only flights from countries on a "red list" will be covered.
No hotels have yet confirmed whether rooms have been booked.
Transport Secretary Michael Matheson said there were approximately 1,600 Scottish arrivals in the last week of January, and numbers fell to 730 in the first week of February.

170 cases of South African variant - PHE
Earlier, the health secretary announced tougher border measures in England to tackle the spread of new variants of the coronavirus - such as the one originally found in South Africa.
Dr Susan Hopkins, from Public Health England, says 170 cases of the South African variant have been identified so far, including 18 that are not linked to travel.
Our health editor, Michelle Roberts, says there's no evidence that the South Africa variant causes more serious illness for most people - but there are concerns it can spread more readily than the original strain and vaccines may not work quite as well against it.

What did the WHO find in Wuhan?
Michelle Roberts
Health editor, BBC News online
As we've been reporting, a team of investigators led by the World Health Organization (WHO) has spent four weeks looking into the origins of Covid-19 in the Chinese city of Wuhan.
It was unlikely that the group, in its politically-charged mission, would be able to pinpoint the source of the pandemic a year after it began.
But, after visiting the Wuhan Institute of Virology, they have closed the lid on a controversial theory that coronavirus came from a lab leak or was made by scientists.

Kani falsely alleges that vaccination campaigns for Covid-19 are part of a “globalist” plot to reduce the world's population, led by influential figures like Bill Gates.
We’ve written previously about how the Microsoft founder became a popular target of coronavirus conspiracies.
The video has now been removed from Facebook, but others containing false claims about vaccines are still online.
More than two million people have died with Covid-19.
Scientists and health experts say that vaccines are the best way of reducing deaths and protecting people against the virus.

A junior doctor has been performing DJ sets in his kitchen in Birmingham to boost medics' morale during the pandemic.
Kishan Bodalia, 26, launched "NHSessions" in England's first lockdown "to lift the spirits of my NHS colleagues and the nation as a whole".
"I just want to help everyone dance, exercise, and above all, smile," he said.
It's even grabbed the attention of Health Secretary Matt Hancock, who called it a "brilliant initiative" and picked his track of the day.
"I am so flattered to hear that the health secretary is a fan and that the project has received such recognition," Dr Bodalia said.
Student to stand trial over '50-person party'
A student is due to stand trial accused of holding a party for about 50 people in an alleged breach of Covid-19 laws.
Police said Bailey Stancer, 19, was fined £10,000 after officers were called to Harlaxton Drive, Lenton, Nottingham, on 11 September.
Mr Stancer, of the same address, denied the charge at Nottingham Magistrates' Court on Monday.
The University of Nottingham student is set to face a two-day trial, starting on 4 August, at the same court.
Mr Stancer was released on unconditional bail, Nottinghamshire Police added.
