Deaths and test results

138 (ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY EIGHT) new cases were announced today. That is the largest single day announcement that we have had. It brings the total to 2328.

The seven day, per 100k population, case figure reached 266.84 on Saturday.

The case numbers over the last 7 days at Heslington/University have reached 100.

To put that into context, the figure is twice the total number of cases that we saw in the whole of the City during the month of August.

The figures may lead to calls for stricter quarantining arrangements on the campus, in student accommodation and in leisure activities.

There have been no additional deaths at the York hospital.
