Cambridgeshire’s Covid-19 infection rate continues to be around the highest it has ever been since the pandemic began.

Ten to 14-year-olds continue to be by far the worst affected as the virus spreads among schoolchildren.

Below we look at how every area of the county is affected.

The 3,401 cases recorded in the week to October 14 was the second highest rolling seven-day number of the whole pandemic – only eclipsed by the 3,584 seen in the week to January 4.

Latest figures, for the week to October 17, show 3,265 cases, up 63 (two per cent) on the previous seven days. The infection rate of 496.8 cases per 100,000 people was above the national average of 465.4.

The number of Covid-19 cases in Fenland for the week to October 17 was 599 – down just one (0.2 per cent) on the previous week.

The infection rate of 586.8 cases per 100,000 people was the highest of any district in Cambridgeshire, with Wisbech South and Peckover worst hit, with 93 cases, up from 52.

March East, with 28, had the fewest.

Fenland has recorded:

• 11,532 confirmed cases since the pandemic began, as of October 22, 2021
• 413 cases in the five days from October 18-22, according to daily case data, which is subject to change
