How many care homes are there in the UK?
There are a total of 21,723 care homes in the UK, including Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands.

Professor Chris Whitty, has said coronavirus is present in around 13.5 per cent of care settings across the UK.

Speaking at the coronavirus press conference on April 13, Professor Whitty said: "If an outbreak is suspected, public health authorities will go in to do testing to assess if an outbreak has taken place."

He added he would like Covid-19 testing to be increased in care homes.
