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

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

The figures, for the seven days to March 8, 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.

Of the 315 local areas in England, 39 (12%) have seen a rise in case rates, 271 (86%) have seen a fall and five (2%) are unchanged.

Derbyshire Dales has the highest rate in England, with 129 new cases recorded in the seven days to March 8 – the equivalent of 178.4 cases per 100,000 people.

This is up from 62.2 per 100,000 in the seven days to March 1.

Hull has the second highest rate, up slightly from 152.1 to 157.8, with 410 new cases.

Preston is in third place, up slightly from 148.8 to 150.2, with 215 new cases.

The top five areas to record a week-on-week rise are:

Derbyshire Dales (up from 62.2 to 178.4)
Ribble Valley (59.1 to 92.0)
East Devon (33.5 to 66.3)
Tewkesbury (15.8 to 31.6)
Selby (48.6 to 64.0)

Here is the list in full.
