THE latest figures showing the seven-day rate of new cases of coronavirus cases in Cheshire have been released.
Published by local authority, the statistics cover the period between Friday, July 3 and Friday, July 10 and are based on tests carried out in laboratories and in the wider community.
They show that the number of coronavirus cases in Cheshire West and Chester – which covers Northwich and Winsford – has risen slightly.
The borough has a rate of 11.7 cases per 100,000 population, rising from 10.6 cases in the previous week between June 26 and June 3.
In Cheshire East – covering Middlewich, Knutsford and Wilmslow – the rate of coronavirus cases has dropped to 4.5 per 100,000 population from 6.0 a week earlier.
Previously released data revealed that the rate of coronavirus infection fell in both boroughs from the week up to Monday, July 6, but these figures run from Monday to Monday rather than Friday to Friday, giving a different set of numbers.
Leicester continues to be the local authority with the highest rates, but has seen this figure fall slightly from 117.7 to 114.3.
Second on the list is Pendle, where the rate has gone up from 14.2 to 67.8. This has been caused by a spike in new cases recorded on July 6 and 7.
The list is based on latest Public Health England figures updated on July 13 on the Government's coronavirus online dashboard.
Data for the most recent three days (July 11 to 13) has been excluded as it is incomplete and likely to be revised.
Here is the list in full, showing the rate of new cases in the seven days to July 10, followed by the equivalent figure for the previous seven days to July 3:
