The number of coronavirus cases across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire has increased by two in the last 24 hours according to figures released today (June 19).
Across the UK, there are 301,815 lab-confirmed cases of Covid-19 and 42,461 people have now passed away after testing positive.
This represents an increase of 1,346 and 173 respectively over the past 24 hours.
In Nottingham, there are still 625 confirmed coronavirus cases - no rise in the last 24 hours.
There has however, been an increase in Nottinghamshire, where the total now stands at 1,472 - two more than the last reported figure.
The full breakdown of cases with the changes in the last 24 hours is as follows:
Gedling - 224 (no change)
Rushcliffe - 199 (no new cases)
Mansfield - 136 (no new cases)

The rate at which the coronavirus infection is spreading across the UK is shrinking, new Government figures show.
For the UK as a whole, the current growth rate is minus 4% to minus 2% and the estimate of the reproduction number, referred to as R, remains at 0.7 to 0.9.
The growth rate reflects how quickly the number of infections is changing day by day, and, as the number of infections decreases, is another way of keeping track of the virus.
If the growth rate is greater than zero, and therefore positive, then the disease will grow, and if the growth rate is less than zero, then the disease will shrink.
