The UK has the worst Covid-19 situation in the world right now. A few graphs to compare it to other countries: The increase in deaths in last 14 days is the highest in the world, followed closely by Portugal (although the latter has much less deaths per capita overall) [1/3] 
You can see the sharp rise in UK deaths compared to all other countries with 100K cases or more. UK has the 3rd highest deaths per capita after Slovenia and Belgium although unlike UK, Belgium records covid deaths without a pcr test. Slovenia has a population of only 2M [2/3]:
Among the four major European countries worst hit by Covid in the first wave (Italy, Spain, France and UK), the UK is the only one to have significantly exceeded daily death tolls compared to first wave, all other three seem to be plateauing while UK is still rising sharp.
