Is lockdown in Leeds working? Here are the areas where Covid cases have more than doubled in the last week

Is the latest lockdown in Leeds working?

Official Government figures show that since mid-January the rate of positive Covid cases per 100,000 people in Leeds has been falling. It's now down to 99.9. But infection rates vary across the city's Middle Super Output Areas (MSOAs) - a geographic measure of around 8,000 people. These 19 areas have seen the number of new coronavirus cases more than double in the seven days to March 16, the latest available figures. All images are for illustrative purposes only.
