The figures are based on tests that have been carried out both in laboratories (pillar one of the Government's testing programme) and in the wider community (pillar two). The rate is expressed as the new number of new cases per 100,000 population. The list is based on the latest Public Health England figures updated on July 9 on the Government's coronavirus online dashboard. Data for the most recent three days (July 7 to 9) has been excluded as it is incomplete and likely to be revised. The list shows the rate of new cases in the seven days to July 6, followed by the equivalent figure for the previous seven days to June 29.
