COVID rates for the Bridport area have dramatically dropped over the past month. An interactive map, which uses Public Health England data, shows how many people have tested positive for the virus in each area of the county over the seven-day period up to Thursday, January 21 – the latest period for when figures are available. Public Health England breaks down the numbers of coronavirus cases into neighbourhoods called Middle Super Output Areas (MSOAs), which are smaller than council wards and based on population rather than geographical area. The map reveals the current amount of reported coronavirus cases in any given area, along with its rolling rate - which is calculated from the amount of people who have tested positive per 100,000 population in the rolling 7-day period.
Covid map The government’s latest map of new infections revealed the most affected postcodes in Bracknell Forest. Public Health England s Covid-19 map paints a slightly different picture than a month ago as the majority of Bracknell Forest displays as a sea of blue, indicating that the rolling rate for each postcode is below 400. Although there are still two areas which are showing high covid-19 infection rates. The areas with fewer cases are represented in the map in blue, which show places with a rate below 400. The map s latest figures show the seven-day rolling rate up to January 21. The map colour-codes MSOAs depending on their seven-day rolling rate, with areas placed into the boundaries of 0-10, 11-50, 51-100, 101-200, 201-400, 400 to 799 and 800 plus.

Suburbs of Bristol continue to see higher coronavirus rates than central areas of the city.
The city has 26 neighbourhoods in the second most severe category for infection rates – and the majority are in the south, east, north-east and north-west of Bristol.
Some areas across Bracknell are now shaded deep blue, although the Crowthorne South area is shaded light blue as it has a rate below 200, of only 151.5. The map colour-codes MSOAs depending on their seven-day rolling rate, with areas placed into the boundaries of 0-10, 11-50, 51-100, 101-200, 201-400, 400 to 799 and 800 plus. Places with a high MSOA rate appear on the map in purple (400 to 799) or dark purple (800 plus). The country is split up by Middle Super Output Area (MSOA), which are small areas with an average population of 7,200, and the data is updated every weekday, with the map showing the last seven days for which complete data is available.
