The last 24 hours has seen an increase of four coronavirus cases in Nottingham.

Today's figures show that there have been 1,163 cases of Covid-19 in Nottingham - up four on yesterday's figures - and a further 2,937 cases in Nottinghamshire - no change.

UK-wide deaths related to Covid-19 now stand at 44,198, an increase of 67.

The number confirmed cases across the country now stands at 284,900, with 624 confirmed in the last 24 hours.

Broken down into each region of Nottinghamshire, the figures also now show a rise in the number of positive cases:

  • Ashfield - 562 (no change)
  • Broxtowe - 422 (two new cases)

The increase in cases comes as pubs, hairdressers and places of worship have reopened across England.

Chancellor Rishi Sunak welcomed the reopening of pubs.

“The hospitality sector is a vital part of our economy and crucial to people’s livelihoods – Britain’s pubs and bars alone employ almost half a million people – which is why it’s such good news that so many people are able to return to work this weekend, helping us all to enjoy summer safely.”
