Latest weekly Covid-19 rates for local authority areas in England
Bolton, Hyndburn and Preston are currently recording the highest rates.
Here is Thursday’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 14, 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 15-17) has been excluded as it is incomplete and likely to be revised.
Hyndburn has the second highest rate, up from 80.2 to 144.4 with 117 new cases.
Preston is in third place, where the rate has risen from 93.6 to 134.8, with 193 new cases.
Areas recording sharp increases in their seven-day rates include:
– Knowsley (up from 61.6 to 114.7, with 173 new cases)
– Oldham (up from 80.1 to 110.1, with 261 new cases)
– Liverpool (up from 67.5 to 107.8, with 537 new cases)
– South Tyneside (up from 60.9 to 93.4, with 141 new cases)
