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

PA News

Here is Thursday’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 August 3, 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 4-6) has been excluded as it is incomplete and likely to be revised.

Oldham is in second place, where the seven-day rate has jumped from 55.7 to 67.9, with 161 new cases.
