Test results
128 positive test results were announced today. Brings the cumulative total up to 14,277
The number of cases in the City has increased from 761 to 808.
The rate /100k population is 383.65. It is trending to reach 408.34.
There are very early signs that the rate of increase in infections may be slowing. The 7 day rolling case number average (which is less influenced by weekend fluctuations in testing rates) may reach a peak early this week,.
Too soon to be sure though.
It is possible that the current surge in infection rates in York will exceed the peak seen in the autumn (442,53 on 18/10/20). We have reset one of the graphs below to contrast the profile of the current wave with what was seen in Dec/Jan. The winter peak eventually reached 670.91 on 8/1/21.
