MN have created a coronavirus forum, maybe post this in there.

That's not quite right as you need to take into account the number of people living in each area. Kensington and Chelsea has fewer than 200,000 residents so per head the rate there is really high. Hertfordshire has more than a million residents so per head it's not very high.

Your right so presumably the cities and London Boroughs have a lot higher rate per capita.

YABU for not posting this in the Coronavirus topic which I've hidden as its driving me nuts

I think the Midlands must have quite a few cases? As there have been two deaths- or is that not the case?

I think Herstory wants as many people as possible to see this (i.e. posting for traffic).

Some people really know nothing about the infection and need to know.

Herstory, where did you find this list? (I'm not questioning it's validity- I just wondered).

We've moved this to the Coronavirus topic.
