Still no local lockdown in Wakefield as coronavirus measures continue

Retrictions will remain in force for Bradford, Kirklees and Calderdale.

Last week Leeds City Council has announced a series of 'key actions' to take place in communities which have a 'cluster' of coronavirus cases.

Wakefield was still classed as an “area of concern” although the latest set of weekly data –between July 20 and July 26 – shows the positive case rate has decreased

The figure fell from 17.4 cases per 100,000 population the previous week to 13 positive cases per 100,000.
