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

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

The figures, for the seven days to May 9, 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 10-13) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Of the 315 local areas in England, 159 (50%) have seen a rise in rates, 140 (44%) have seen a fall and 16 are unchanged.

Bolton in Greater Manchester has the highest rate, with 553 new cases in the seven days to May 9 – the equivalent of 192.3 cases per 100,000 people.

This is up from 84.9 in the seven days to May 2.

Erewash in Derbyshire has the second highest rate, up from 65.0 to 181.2, with 209 new cases.

Blackburn with Darwen in Lancashire has the third highest, up from 54.1 to 107.6, with 161 new cases.

The five areas with the biggest week-on-week rises are:
Erewash (up from 65.0 to 181.2)
Bolton (84.9 to 192.3)
Blackburn with Darwen (54.1 to 107.6)
Bedford (39.8 to 86.0)
Melton (9.8 to 48.8)

The list has been calculated by the PA news agency based on Public Health England data published on May 13 on the Government’s coronavirus dashboard.

Here is the list in full.

From left to right, it reads: name of local authority; rate of new cases in the seven days to May 9; number (in brackets) of new cases recorded in the seven days to May 9; rate of new cases in the seven days to May 2; number (in brackets) of new cases recorded in the seven days to May 2.
