Coronavirus: Infection rates have fallen across East Lancashire AT THE start of this year the Government’s interactive Covid map painted a very bleak picture of the number of cases in the Winchester district, but the picture is now much more favourable. In January, the district was a sea of purple, denoting one of highest rates of Covid infection of more than 400 and 799 per 100,000 people. Fortunately, Winchester was not the worst affected area of the country, as in the seven days to January 2, there were 618 cases in Winchester district for a rolling rate per 100,000 of 495, slightly below the UK average, compared to the previous seven days figures of 345 and a rolling 276.3.
It is
Winchester West, the area that includes Fulflood and Weeke. The latest information relating to Covid-19 was updated this afternoon and reports only four cases in that area in the week to Sunday April 4, the most recent day for which localised figures are available. That figure of four is the same as for the previous seven days and gives a rolling number of 30.1 per 100,000. The other 13 areas have reported fewer than three cases in those seven days and are marked white on the Government map, below.
Colden Common and Twyford is the most recent area to be marked as white.
Bishop s Waltham and Waltham Chase;
Denmead and Southwick.
South Wonston, Sutton Scotney and Micheldever, both mini-clusters, are now marked white on the map
. The only areas where there are currently cases are
Colden Common and Twyford, three cases, up one, for a rolling number per 100,000 of 31.5; and
Winchester West, three cases, down one, for a rolling 30.1. Only three schools are currently affected by Covid, either pupils or staff, and they are now St John the Baptist in Waltham Chase, Micheldever and now Winnall. Others now back to normal are Kings Henry Beaufort, Sun Hill and Shepherds Down. There have been no further hospital deaths recorded in the Winchester district now for 37 days running. The number of Covid death in the three hospitals of the Hampshire Hospitals Trust (RHCH, Basingstoke and Andover) remains at 438, with no deaths for 20 days.
COVID-19 numbers are now tumbling across Hampshire as well as the Winchester district. Numbers across Hampshire as a whole had been creeping up. But today Hampshire has joined in Winchester in seeing numbers fall with 378 cases in the week to March 31, down 59 or 13 per cent, for a rolling figure per 100,000 people of 27.3. As reported yesterday 12 of the 14 areas of the Winchester district are virtually Covid-free with fewer than three cases reported in the seven days to March 31, according to figures released this afternoon. And numbers in the two mini-hotspots of South Wonston, Sutton Scotney and Micheldever and Wickham, Knowle and Whiteley have fallen, meaning there are now no parts of the districts where the numbers are rising, also a first.
