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

The figures, for the seven days to June 19, 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 (June 20-23) has been excluded as it is incomplete and does not reflect the true number of cases.

Of the 315 local areas in England, 269 (85%) have seen a rise in rates, 43 (14%) have seen a fall and three are unchanged.

This is down from 575.8 in the seven days to June 12.

Hyndburn in Lancashire has the second highest rate, up slightly from 454.1 to 464.0, with 376 new cases.
