Covid clusters
The government uses a heatmap to show the density of cases in council districts and neighbourhoods, called MSOAs.
It shows there are seven areas in and around Bristol with case rates above 400 per 100,000 people.
Backwell and Flax Bourton: 511, up by 98.8 per cent
Nailsea East: 485.4, up by 6.9 per cent
Nailsea West: 448.8, up by 127.8 per cent
Westbury-on-Trym: 436.4, up by 115.4 per cent
- Headley Park: 418.4, up by 18.2 per cent
Westbury Park: 414.9, up by 59.1 per cent
- Hartcliffe: 411.9, up by 47.6 per cent
Bristol city centre, Clifton East and Barton Hill recorded some of the lowest rates across the South West - and indeed the country.
But vaccinations in Bristol continue to lag behind the rest of the UK, with just 69.9 per cent of people double-jabbed compared to the lastest available national average of 82.5 per cent.
Across the UK, another 30,439 cases were confirmed, but the daily Covid death rate dropped by 18.7 per cent over the seven days prior to September 28.
