Promising new map shows 6 areas of Nottinghamshire with lowest Covid-19 infection rates

Six areas of Nottinghamshire are now reporting coronavirus infection rates which are significantly below the England average, according to the Government's interactive map.

The data has emerged as Prime Minister Boris Johnson is set to announce the country's 'roadmap' out of lockdown next week.

It shows six areas had infection rates below 100 per 100,000 people in the seven days to February 11.

Beeston North is the part of the county that currently has the lowest rolling rate of infections, at 60.1, after the number of active infections dropped by six to five.

Neighbouring Beeston Town has the second-lowest rate at 64.1. The area had a total of six cases in the week to February 11, down by seven.

While there are encouraging signs with many areas recording drops in cases, there are still some areas of the county which are above the England average.

The worst area for Covid infections in the seven-day period is Bulwell West, which has a rolling rate of 489.2 per 100,000 people, with a total of 43 cases. The number of cases has decreased, however, by 34 on the previous seven days.
