There has not been a single Covid-19 case among those aged 80+ in Bracknell in the past six weeks, with the high uptake of vaccines seemingly paying dividends as the move away from restrictions continues.

The last person aged 80 or older to test positive for the coronavirus was an 85-89 year old on March 8, according to the latest NHS data, which currently goes up until April 21.

Since then, there have been 44 days with no positive cases among the 80+ group.

For those aged 60 and over, all of which have been offered a first vaccine dose, there have been just 21 cases in the six weeks from March 8 to April 21.

Cases in other age groups (below 80)

Looking at the same time period (March 8-April 21), there are fairly low case numbers among all age groups following the lockdown in England which began in January and started to end in March.

However, the groups where less people have been able to get a vaccine so far have more regular and higher case numbers.

Currently, everyone aged 50 or above has been offered a vaccine, while those 42 and over are now being offered jabs.

In the 70-79 group, there have been seven cases, with the most recent on April 13.

For those in their 60s, 14 have tested positive in this period, with recent cases on April 16.

Going down to the 50s, this goes up to 27 cases in the same 44-day period, with the most recent case on April 14.

All over 50s were offered the vaccine by April 13, which starts working around two weeks after the first dose.

Those in their 40s have only just started to receive a first dose of a Covid vaccine and we can see this in the numbers, with 40 cases in the same period.

The most recent case was on April 21 (the day with the most recent stats).

There are similar numbers for people in their 30s -who will only have received a dose if they work in care or health or are clinically extremely vulnerable – with 37 cases in the same period and the most recent positive test also on April 21.

Going down to those in their 20s, there were 25 cases in this period , with the most recent case from April 19.

And there were 18 cases among those aged under-20 in the same period.

The most recent case among this age group was on April 20 and was a 5-9 year old.
