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

Here is Monday’s update of the rolling seven-day rate of new cases of Covid-19 for every local authority in England.

The figures, for the seven days to August 14, 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.

Data for the most recent three days (August 15-17) has been excluded as it is incomplete and likely to be revised.

Northampton continues to have the highest rate, thanks to an outbreak at the Greencore sandwich factory.

A total of 276 new cases were recorded in in the town in the seven days to August 14, the equivalent of 122.9 per 100,000 people – up from 39.6 per 100,000 in the previous seven days to August 7.

In Oldham the rate has fallen slightly from 94.5 to 91.5, with 217 new cases.

Blackburn with Darwen is third, where the rate has increased from 80.2 to 86.8 with 130 new cases.

In Pendle the rate has dropped from 99.9 to 70.6 with 65 new cases, while Leicester has also seen a fall, from 63.8 to 54.5 with 193 new cases.

Other areas recording notable week-on-week jumps include:

– Manchester (up from 34.4 to 46.8, with 259 new cases)

– Birmingham (up from 18.2 to 31.5, with 360 new cases)

– Kirklees (up from 27.5 to 33.9, with 149 new cases)

The list has been calculated by the PA news agency and is based on Public Health England data published on August 17 on the Government’s coronavirus online dashboard.

Here is the list in full.
