Coronavirus West Berkshire: Confirmed cases as of December 1




The number of lab-confirmed coronavirus cases in West Berkshire now stands at 1,678 - an increase of 13 in the past 24 hours.

Cases are now allocated to the person's area of residence. Since November 16, Public Health England has updated the way it records the location of people who test positive or negative for Covid-19.

It now prioritises addresses given at the point of testing over the details registered on a patient's NHS Summary Care Record.

West Berkshire's seven-day rolling rate per 100,000 population to November 25 is 58.1, with 92 cases in the seven days to November 25.

Seven–day rates are one indicator of whether an area moves up or down a Tier, with a rate of below 100 required for medium/Tier 1. The rate is calculated by dividing the seven day count by the area population and multiplying by 100,000.
