Meanwhile in Cornwall, the G7 summit is in danger of turning into a super spreader event, in an area that has had the lowest infection rates in England until now.
13 out of 17 staff at a hotel housing media and members of the German delegates' security team have caught covid.

The last few days have seen a surge in cases in Cornwall.
There have already been almost as many cases this week (102) as there were in the whole of May (121), and the data is still incomplete!

Updated with another day of data. Wednesday 9th June is now up to 85 cases, and still incomplete.
It seems likely that once all the test results are in, Cornwall will have had more cases in one day at some point this week than it had in the whole of May.
This doesn't bode well.

It took a day longer than I predicted, but Monday saw 120 covid cases in Cornwall, pretty much matching the 121 cases they had in *the whole of May* in a single day!
Zooming in on the map, it certainly looks like the G7 summit caused the surge.
By far the highest case rates are in St Ives on the left (were the summit took place) and Falmouth and the surrounding area on the right (where the media centre was).
