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 August 23, 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 (August 24-27) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Of the 312 local areas in England, 199 (64%) have seen a week-on-week rise in rates and 113 (36%) have seen a fall.

Cornwall & the Isles of Scilly continue to have the highest rate, with 4,705 new cases in the seven days to August 23, the equivalent of 817.5 per 100,000 people.

This is up sharply from 433.5 in the seven days to August 16.

West Devon has the second highest rate, up from 358.0 to 696.5, with 391 new cases.

Sedgemoor in Somerset has the third highest rate, up slightly from 652.1 to 688.6, with 850 new cases.

The five areas with the biggest week-on-week rises are:
Cornwall & Isles of Scilly (433.5 to 817.5)
West Devon (358.0 to 696.5)
Torridge (384.2 to 598.1)
Teignbridge (457.6 to 670.2)
South Hams (370.7 to 557.2)

The list has been calculated by the PA news agency based on Public Health England data published on August 27 on the Government’s coronavirus dashboard.

Here is the list in full.
