A NEW map has been developed which shows the rate and number of new coronavirus cases in each area of Warrington.
Located on the Government’s online coronavirus dashboard, the map replaces a previous version which only gave the number of cases.
The map is broken down into ‘middle layer super output areas’, which is a system used by the Office for National Statistics and is slightly larger than a postcode area.
The map uses figures from a seven-day period that have been sourced from Public Health England, based on pillars one and two of the Government's testing programme.
At the time of writing, the map displayed the number and rate of new cases confirmed between October 4 and October 10.
Data for the most recent days is excluded as it is incomplete, does not reflect the true number of cases and is likely to be revised.
According to the map, Callands and Old Hall was the area of Warrington with the most confirmed cases after 52 people tested positive.
This was followed by Central Warrington (40) and Kingswood and Whittle Hall (39).
The full list is as follows, with the area’s rate of new cases per 100,000 people in brackets:
