The Government today announced that Derby and Derbyshire will staying in Tier 3 of Covid-19 restrictions.
The city and county will remain in the tighter-restricting tier until at least Wednesday, December 30.
In an announcement in the House of Commons today, Health Secretary Matt Hancock confirmed that the only places to move from Tier 3 to Tier 2 are Bristol and North Somerset. They will change tiers on Saturday.
It followed calls from both the city and county’s public health directors to keep Derbyshire in Tier 3 until into January due to “worrying” rising infection rates, including in the over 60s, and pressure on local NHS services.
