Coronavirus cases increase by 1,175 in a week in the Anglia region
With more than a thousand new positive Covid-19 tests in the Anglia region in the past week, there are still a number of coronavirus hotspots around the area.
It is the highest weekly total of new cases in the area since the end of May.
Figures released by Public Health England on Wednesday revealed that the daily number of new coronavirus cases in the Anglia region had risen by 130. That made the weekly total in the past seven days 1,175 compared with 1,006 positive tests announced the week before.
It was an increase of 17% in the region but across the country the weekly cases are rising at more than twice that rate with a 39% increase.
Some parts of the region are seeing higher infection rates than others with more than 35 cases per 100,000 in Corby, Northampton and Kettering in Northamptonshire and in St Albans, Hertfordshire.
Hertsmere, Corby, Peterborough, Northampton and Norfolk remain on Public Health England's watchlist of 'areas of concern' and that list will be reviewed on Friday.
