Hitchin Covid map: Find out how many cases there are in our town and north Herts
As Lockdown 2.0 nears on Thursday, learn more about the number of Covid cases in Hitchin and north Herts with a government interactive.
The map uses official data to show the extent of Covid exposure in every area of the country within the past seven days. It is updated with new figures every day.
It shows:
- the number of cases in the past seven days
- the rate of infection per 100,000 people in the population
- how the area compares to the rest of England
Each area, known as a 'Middle Super Output Area', has an average population of 7,200.
Hitchin is currently highlighted in blue which illustrates 101 - 200 cases per 100,000 people.
However, to indicate how the virus is infecting more people in north Herts, nearby Letchworth has now moved to dark blue which indicates cases of between 201 to 400.
This new gov.uk interactive map has a high reference point of 400 cases per 100,000 – an illustration of how the virus is spreading across the country.
Here's the interactive map for you to review here
