Here is Monday’s update of the rolling seven-day rate of new cases of Covid-19 for every local authority in England.
The figures, for the seven days to July 31, 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 (August 1-August 3) has been excluded as it is incomplete and likely to be revised.
In Blackburn with Darwen, the rate has fallen slightly from 81.9 cases per 100,000 people in the seven days to July 24 to 77.9 in the seven days to July 31. A total of 116 new cases have been recorded.
Oldham is in second place, where the seven-day rate has increased from 52.6 to 58.1, with 137 new cases.
Bradford is third, where the rate has risen from 48.2 to 53.1, with 285 new cases.
The rate in Leicester continues to fall, down from 64.5 to 52.9, with 188 new cases.
Other areas reporting notable week-on-week jumps include, in Greater Manchester:
– Stockport (up from 14.1 to 28.4 with 83 new cases)
– Manchester (up from 21.7 to 34.7 with 190 new cases)
– Bury (up from 9.5 to 19.5 with 37 new cases)
And elsewhere in England:
– Swindon (up from 19.8 to 48.6 with 108 new cases)
– Preston (up from 15.5 to 33.8 with 48 new cases)
– Calderdale (up from 24.3 to 39.5 with 83 new cases)
The list has been compiled by the PA news agency and is based on Public Health England data published on August 3 on the Government’s coronavirus online dashboard.
Here is the list in full.
