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

The figures, for the seven days to January 25, 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 26-29) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Of the 315 local areas in England, 10 (3%) have seen a rise in case rates and 305 (97%) have seen a fall.

Knowsley in Merseyside continues to have the highest rate in England, with 1,090 new cases recorded in the seven days to January 25 – the equivalent of 722.5 cases per 100,000 people.

This is down from 1,014.2 cases per 100,000 people in the seven days to January 18.

Slough in Berkshire has the second highest rate, down from 940.2 to 662.0, with 990 new cases.

Sandwell in the West Midlands is in third place, down from 902.1 to 653.7, with 2,147 new cases.

The 10 areas to record a week-on-week rise in rates are:

1. Bassetlaw (up from 219.7 to 373.7)2. Derbyshire Dales (200.5 to 268.2)3. Fylde (293.4 to 320.6)4. Barnsley (238.2 to 260.9)5. North Tyneside (196.2 to 211.1)6. Wakefield (232.3 to 239.7)7. Boston (182.4 to 189.5)8. Bradford (280.7 to 285.9)9. East Riding of Yorkshire (175.3 to 178.8)10. Calderdale (208.1 to 210.0)

The list has been calculated by the PA news agency based on Public Health England data published on January 29 on the Government’s coronavirus dashboard.
