Coronavirus cases fall in Peterborough

Figures released earlier this week showed there were 27.9 cases per 100,000 people in the city, putting Peterborough 11th in the rankings of all authorities in the country.

New data revealed today show that number has fallen to under 20, with the figure now standing at 18.9. Peterborough now stands 13th in the country.

The figures are for the week ending June 28 and show the rate of new cases in each area, based on tests that have been carried out both in laboratories (‘pillar 1’ of the Government’s testing programme) and in the wider community (‘pillar 2’).

As such the figures gives a more comprehensive overview of the country than the daily figures for local areas that are published on the Department of Health website, which are based only on pillar 1 testing.

Here is the full list, showing the number of cases per 100,000 population in the week ending June 28 and, in brackets, the equivalent figure for the previous week ending June 21.
