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

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

The figures, for the seven days to April 17, are based on the number of people who have tested positive for Covid-19 in either a lab-reported or rapid lateral flow test, by specimen date.

The rate is expressed as the number of new cases per 100,000 people.

Data for the most recent four days (April 18-21) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Doncaster has the highest rate, with 229 new cases in the seven days to April 17 – the equivalent of 73.4 cases per 100,000 people.

This is down slightly from 85.3 in the seven days to April 10.

Luton has the second highest rate, down from 94.8 to 72.8, with 155 new cases.

Leicester has the third highest, down from 76.8 to 66.6, with 236 new cases.

The five areas with the biggest week-on-week rises are:
South Lakeland (up from 4.8 to 28.5)
Daventry (24.4 to 45.4)
Nuneaton & Bedworth (26.9 to 42.3)
Eastleigh (12.7 to 26.2)
Cambridge (27.2 to 40.1)

Here is the list in full.
