No more cases of coronavirus have been recorded across Rutland and Lincolnshire today.

NHS England says Rutland has a total of 35 confirmed cases, just one more than the 34 recorded when Nub News last reported the figures last Wednesday.

It's rate of 88.2 cases per 100,000 is the fourth best of all England's lower tier authorities.

Lincolnshire has confirmed 1,111 cases of the virus, an increase of ten since last Wednesday.

The number means the county has a rate of 147 cases per 100,000 people, which is just over half the England average of 272.4 cases per 100,000 population.

Peterborough reported 427 cases, a downward revision of one on yesterday and an increase of three on the 424 recorded last Wednesday. This gives a rate of 212.4.

Among the districts we cover, all remained the same today.

Melton's 71 (138.9) is one up on last Wednesday.

North Kesteven's 135 is the same throughout (116.4).

South Holland's 226 (115.6) is one up on last Wednesday.

South Kesteven's 164 (115.6) is two up on last Wednesday.

Nationally, the number of confirmed cases of coronavirus increased 1,570 to 276,332.

The number of deaths increased by 111 to 39,045.

Locally, one further death was recorded in Lincolnshire's hospitals today.

The latest government statistics mean there have now been 134 deaths at United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust facilities.

Along with no changes in number at Lincolnshire Partnership Foundation Trust and Lincolnshire Community Health services, the total hospital deaths for Lincolnshire now stands at 138.

There were no further deaths, however, in Northern Lincolnshire and Goole Hospitals which remains at 109.
