Covid infection rates

Coronavirus infection rates are falling in Berkshire with a number of neighbourhoods now in the green zone.

Positive tests of the virus are starting to fall below 100 cases per 100,000 people in the county following the second national lockdown as Christmas approaches.

And although Slough still has one of the highest rate of Covid in England, it has dipped below 300 for the first time in three weeks. However, no neighbourhood in the town currently has a rate below 100.

All of the other five boroughs' rate is also dropping, and in all 34 neighbourhoods in Berkshire are now in the green zone with fewer than 100 cases recorded for the seven-day rolling rat to November 30.

Some areas on the map are in white, which means there have been fewer than three cases. No rate or data has been given to protect individuals' identities.

The majority of Berkshire was placed under tier two restrictions when lockdown was lifted on Wednesday, December 2, with Slough the only area to be placed in tier three.

Below is a list of the seven day rates for the areas which now have cases under 100 per 100,000 of the population.
