Just one area in Kent has seen an increase in cases this week as rates drop to their lowest levels since mid-October.
On the week ending February 24, Kent and Medway saw 1,078 new weekly cases, a drop of 16.5% from the previous week bringing the infection rate down to 57.96.
The last time weekly cases were this low was on October 19 - just five days after the tier system first came into force - when 1,032 were counted.
The lowest infection rate in the county can be seen in Canterbury at 33.3, with just 55 cases dropping by 16.5% in the last week.

Hundreds of lives could be saved with oxygen pulse readers that have been rolled out across the county amid fears of a hidden symptom of coronavirus.
A trait of Covid known as silent hypoxia can leave a person feeling relatively well, despite blood oxygen levels dropping to dangerous levels. To track this, the NHS in Kent have distributed 5,000 small devices called pulse oximeters.

The devices are placed on a person s finger and used to measure blood oxygen levels. Any severe Covid cases can be identified early and referred to hospital.
