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

06 January 2021

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

The figures, for the seven days to January 2, 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 four days (January 3-6) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Of the 315 local areas in England, 309 (98%) have seen a rise in case rates and six (2%) have seen a fall.

Barking & Dagenham in London continues to have the highest rate in England, with 3,380 new cases recorded in the seven days to January 2 – the equivalent of 1,587.6 cases per 100,000 people.

This is up from 1,057.7 in the seven days to December 26.

Thurrock in Essex has the second highest rate, up from 1,266.5 to 1,512.0, with 2,636 new cases.

Redbridge in London is in third place, where the rate has increased from 1,134.6 to 1,475.0 with 4,502 new cases.
