Sharp spike in coronavirus cases in Chirk
There has been a big spike in positive cases in the Chirk and Ceiriog Valley area.
The number of cases for the area has gone up from 602 per 100,000 population on January 18 to 972, an increase of 370.
It is the only area of Wrexham County Borough Council to have seen numbers rise this week.

Lawrence Isted for Wrexham County Borough Council said the principal settings for the virus remaining households followed, some way below, by outbreaks at the Maelor Hospital, in care/nursing homes and the prison. There were also several work-place clusters.
He said a vaccination centre in Wrexham would open at the Catrin Finch Centre on the university campus on Tuesday but stressed that people cannot just turn up; they must wait for an invitation.
"All GP practices have agreed to provide vaccinations and will have received some supplies this week. This will continue and expand in the coming days with priority groups being contacted to attend for vaccinations. Again, people cannot just turn up; they must wait for an invitation."
