I thought I would share with you the PHE work on where cases are on the watchlist.

For each:

A map showing how cases per 100,000 last week and this week.

A chart showing positivity. High positivity = not enough testing.

Here's the national picture.

For context, New York closing schools at 3%. However, positivity in New York may be measured slightly differently.

Here is a case study - Liverpool vs New York

Burnley

Liverpool

(see duncanrobertson.com/2020/10/04/we-… for a case study of Liverpool)

Newcastle upon Tyne

Bolton

Halton

Pendle

South Tyneside

Manchester

Hyndburn

Sunderland

Bury

Blackburn with Darwen

Preston

Oldham

Rochdale

Warrington

St Helens

There are more local authorities on the watch list, but hopefully this gives you some idea of what is going on.
