Deaths

Two additional deaths announced by the York Hospital Trust. One occurred on Friday and one yesterday

Test results

FIFTY THREE positive test results announced today. That is the lowest single day figure since before Christmas. Weekend figures tend to be lower so there may be a correction later in the week.

The cumulative total is now 10,672

Rate /100k population has fallen to 354,69. The current trend would see the rate fall below 300 on Tuesday.

Infection rates in York and North Yorkshire continue to fall more sharply than either the regional or national trends.

Neighbourhoods

Infection rates are continuing to fall in all areas (with the sole exception of New Earswick)

Vaccinations

6,353,321 people in the UK have now received their first dose of a vaccine. 491,970 were inoculated yesterday (a daily high)
