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 May 29, 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 (May 30-June 2) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Blackburn with Darwen in Lancashire continues to have the highest rate, with 653 new cases in the seven days to May 29, the equivalent of 436.2 cases per 100,000 people.

This is up from 314.0 in the seven days to May 22.

Bolton in Greater Manchester has the second highest rate, down from 450.7 to 371.8, with 1,069 new cases.

Rossendale in Lancashire has the third highest, up from 138.5 to 312.0, with 223 new cases.

The five areas with the biggest week-on-week rises are:
Rossendale (up from 138.5 to 312.0)
Blackburn with Darwen (314.0 to 436.2)
Ribble Valley (29.6 to 151.1)
Hyndburn (80.2 to 196.2)
Salford (41.3 to 123.2)

Here is the list in full.
