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

Here is Thursday’s update of Covid-19 case rates for every local authority area in England.

The figures, for the seven days to February 28, 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 (March 1-4) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

North West Leicestershire has the highest rate in England, with 205 new cases recorded in the seven days to February 28 – the equivalent of 197.9 cases per 100,000 people.

This is down from 201.7 cases per 100,000 people in the seven days to February 21.

Corby in Northamptonshire has the second highest rate, down sharply from 351.7 to 188.3, with 136 new cases.

Leicester is in third place, down from 249.0 to 188.0, with 666 new cases.

Of the 13 areas to record a week-on-week rise, the top five are:
East Lindsey (up from 43.0 to 71.3)
Worthing (80.5 to 103.1)
Dacorum (63.3 to 80.1)
Tonbridge & Malling (34.8 to 46.2)
Burnley (99.0 to 110.2)

Here is the list in full.
