Here is Monday’s update of the rolling seven-day rate of new cases of Covid-19 for every local authority area in England.

The figures, for the seven days to September 4, are based on tests carried out in laboratories (pillar one of the Government’s testing programme) and in the wider community (pillar two).

The rate is expressed as the number of new cases per 100,000 people.

Data for the most recent three days (September 5-7) has been excluded as it is incomplete and likely to be revised.

In Bolton, 350 new cases were recorded in the seven days to September 4 – the equivalent of 121.7 per 100,000 people. This is the highest rate in England and it is up sharply from 48.3 in the seven days to August 28.

The rate in Bradford has also increased sharply, from 46.3 to 70.6 with 381 new cases.

Blackburn with Darwen is in third place, where the rate has risen from 47.4 to 62.8, with 94 new cases.

Other areas recording notable week-on-week jumps include:

– Birmingham (up from 28.1 to 60.3, with 689 new cases)

– Leeds (up from 29.6 to 47.9, with 380 new cases)

– Liverpool (up from 14.9 to 35.7, with 178 new cases)

– Gateshead (up from 13.4 to 46.0, with 93 new cases)

– Salford (up from 37.5 to 60.3, with 156 new cases)

The list has been calculated by the PA news agency and is based on Public Health England data published on September 7 on the Government’s coronavirus online dashboard.

Here is the list in full.
