THE latest data showing the number of new Covid-19 cases in each local authority has been published.

The figures, released by Press Association through Public Health England, show the rate of new cases in each area, based on tests that have been carried out both in laboratories 'pillar 1' of the Government's testing programme and in the wider community 'pillar 2'.

This data reveals the number of cases per 100,000 population, for the week ending Sunday, June 28.

Halton's infection rate has remained the same over a two-week period at 6.2.

However, Liverpool's rate has increased and Warrington's has almost halved at 5.7.
