One Covid hotspot area has been revealed in Bracknell Forest with the highest number of confirmed cases.
An interactive map shows the seven–day rolling rate of new cases for the week ending February 2 in Bracknell Forest.
Seven–day rates are expressed per 100,000 population and are calculated by dividing the seven day count by the area population and multiplying by 100,000.
The data is updated every weekday, and the map shows the latest seven days for which complete data is available.
Public Health England has presented areas in different colours, based on their current weekly rate of infection with dark purple displaying a rate of above 800.
Only one area in Bracknell Forest is displaying as dark purple which means this neighbourhood is very high risk.
Everywhere else on the map is showing as light blue, which means Covid cases across the rest of Bracknell are much lower.
