Here is Monday’s update of the latest Covid-19 case rates for every local authority area in England.

The figures, for the seven days to January 21, 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 four days (January 22-25) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Of the 315 local areas in England, 27 (9%) have seen a rise in case rates, 287 (91%) have seen a fall and one is unchanged.

Knowsley in Merseyside continues to have the highest rate in England, with 1,358 new cases recorded in the seven days to January 21, the equivalent of 900.2 cases per 100,000 people.

This is down from 1,178.6 cases per 100,000 people in the seven days to January 14.

Sandwell in the West Midlands has the second highest rate, down from 910.0 to 833.3, with 2,737 new cases.

Slough in Berkshire is in third place, down from 1,049.9 to 791.8, with 1,184 new cases.

The 10 areas with the biggest week-on-week rise in rates are:

1. Bolsover (up from 436.9 to 564.8)
2. Bassetlaw (252.9 to 361.0)
3. North Warwickshire (370.8 to 471.9)
4. Barnsley (214.3 to 275.9)
5. West Devon (143.4 to 195.4)
6. Bradford (261.8 to 311.2)
7. Boston (163.9 to 212.3)
8. Middlesbrough (449.7 to 488.0)
9. Wakefield (234.6 to 272.2)
10. Leicester (535.0 to 564.3)

The list has been calculated by the PA news agency based on Public Health England data published on January 25 on the Government’s coronavirus dashboard.
