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

Here is Wednesday’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 December 5, 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 four days (December 6-9) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Swale in Kent continues to have the highest rate in England, with 930 new cases recorded in the seven days to December 5 – the equivalent of 619.7 cases per 100,000 people.

This is up from 564.4 in the seven days to November 28.

Medway, also in Kent, has the second highest rate, up from 529.2 to 602.4, with 1,678 new cases.

Basildon in Essex is in third place, where the rate has risen from 302.9 to 433.8, with 812 new cases.

After Basildon, the areas with the biggest week-on-week jumps are Hastings (up from 70.1 to 199.7, with 185 new cases); Runnymede (up from 161.0 to 284.0, with 254 new cases); and Brentwood (up from 166.2 to 281.7, with 217 new cases).

Here is the list in full. From left to right, it reads: name of local authority; rate of new cases in the seven days to December 5; number (in brackets) of new cases recorded in the seven days to December 5; rate of new cases in the seven days to November 28; number (in brackets) of new cases recorded in the seven days to November 28.
