North Lincolnshire threatened with local lockdown as cases triple
North Lincolnshire residents are being threatened with a local lockdown if they don’t follow social distancing rules after a sharp rise in cases recently.
Some 22.1 cases per 100,000 people have been in the area over the most recent seven day period three times as many as the previous week.
According to the latest government figures, North Lincolnshire has had 830 cases in total so far, and 89 residents have died after contracting COVID-19.
Penny Spring, director of public health at North Lincolnshire Council, said: “We’re on the cusp in North Lincolnshire – we’re not in dire straits yet but we’re probably as close as being so as we have been since early March.
