Latest weekly Covid-19 rates for local authority areas in England

PA News

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

The figures, for the seven days to May 13, are based on the number of people who have tested positive for Covid-19 in either a lab-reported or rapid lateral flow test, by specimen date.

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

Data for the most recent four days (May 14-17) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Of the 315 local areas in England, 150 (48%) have seen a rise in rates, 143 (45%) have seen a fall and 22 are unchanged.

Bolton in Greater Manchester continues to have the highest rate, with 811 new cases in the seven days to May 13 – the equivalent of 282.0 cases per 100,000 people.

This is up from 133.9 in the seven days to May 6.

Bedford has the second highest rate, up from 61.2 to 123.5, with 214 new cases.

Blackburn with Darwen in Lancashire has the third highest, up from 84.8 to 117.6, with 176 new cases.
