It is the first time the R Rate for the UK has been below 1 since July 2020. The Government says an R-value between 0.7 and 0.9 means that, on average, every 10 people infected will infect between seven and nine other people.
Dorset areas where coronavirus cases are increasing and declining CASES of coronavirus are continuing to fall across Dorset, as data suggests the spread of Covid-19 is declining. 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 Sunday, February 6. 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 interactive map, which can be found through this link, allows users to type in their postcode and see how many cases were reported in their area and if it has increased or decreased from the week before. The darker the colour on the image, the more positive test results have been recorded.
