The areas of Wales which still have almost no Covid cases despite rising national infection rates

The number of communities in Wales that have no current Covid-19 cases is falling rapidly as a third wave of the pandemic engulfs Wales.

There are now just 17 areas where there have been fewer than two coroanvirus cases in the last week – down from above 300 of Wales 410 ward-level areas a month ago.

Public Health Wales stops publishing data when there are two cases or fewer as it could identify individuals.

Every day Public Health Wales (PHW) publishes hyperlocal data which includes areas with an average of 7,000 people, called middle super output areas. In practice this means there are statistics for areas like Canton in Cardiff, Morriston in Swansea, and Porth in Rhondda.

You can search for your area in the table at the bottom of the article. It should be stressed that even if your area is listed below this doesn't mean that you do not need to follow Covid-19 rules. Just because there are no cases doesn't mean asymptomatic transmission is not occurring.

These are the areas with virtually no coronavirus cases broken down by local authority according to PHW data published on Friday, July 23.
