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

Here is Sunday’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 24, 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.

In Burnley, 240 new cases were recorded in the seven days to September 24 – the equivalent of 269.9 per 100,000 people.

Burnley has the highest rate in England, up from 138.3 in the seven days to September 17.

Knowsley has the second highest rate, up from 137.2 to 265.1 with 400 new cases.

Liverpool is in third place, where the rate has risen from 146.6 to 251.8, with 1,254 new cases.

Other areas recording sharp increases in their seven-day rates include:

– Newcastle upon Tyne (up from 89.5 to 246.4, with 746 new cases)

– Pendle (up from 112.9 to 218.2 with 201 new cases)

– Sunderland (up from 88.2 to 188.7, with 524 new cases)

– Northumberland (up from 49.9 to 137.7 with 444 new cases)

– Halton (up from 143.0 to 219.5, with 284 new cases)

The list has been calculated by the PA news agency and is based on Public Health England data published on September 27 on the Government’s coronavirus dashboard.
