Coronavirus infection rates are rising in 43 areas in England.
Of 315 local authority areas, 267 have recorded a week-on-week fall, while five have remained the same.
But the 43 going up are a worrying reminder that the virus is far from being completely under control, the Mirror Online reports.
Corby in Northamptonshire continues to have the highest rate in England, with 238 new cases recorded in the seven days to February 18 – the equivalent of 329.6 cases per 100,000 people.
This is down slightly from 347.6 cases per 100,000 people in the seven days to February 11.
Middlesbrough has the second highest rate, down from 316.4 to 285.1, with 402 new cases.
Peterborough is in third place, down very slightly from 276.9 to 270.0, with 546 new cases.
Of the 43 areas to record a week-on-week rise, the top five are:
Rutland (up from 182.8 to 237.9) Craven (43.8 to 80.5) Brentwood (83.1 to 118.1) Tamworth (203.4 to 236.0) Malvern Hills (104.2 to 136.0)
Sir Patrick Vallance has warned the UK could see a big “resurgence” in cases if it reopened from lockdown too soon.
“The sooner you open up everything, the higher the risk of a bigger resurgence,” he said. “The slower you do it, the better.
“And importantly, if you want to understand what you’re doing because we don’t know for sure what the effects of the different measures are, do steps with enough time between them that you can measure data.
“And that means probably allowing something like four or five weeks between each step – four weeks to be able to measure the effects of the step you’ve just taken, and then a week for people to actually get ready in terms of what needs to happen.”
Coronavirus infection rates in your area
These are the week-on-week figures for each local authority area in England, with the worst affected at the top.
The figures show: rate of new cases in the seven days to February 18 and the number (in brackets) of new cases recorded in this period; It then shows the rate of new cases in the seven days to February 11 and the number (in brackets) of new cases recorded in that timeframe.
Those in bold have seen their rate go up.
