Every area in Newport sees fall in Covid cases in recent days

In the seven days up to January 26, every middle layer super output area (an area of 2,000 to 6,000 households which PHW has divided each region into to measure Covid rates) in Newport saw a drop in cases based on the previous week.

The trend was the same right across the region, showing lockdown tier four regulations are working.

In the seven days up to January 26, Victoria and Somerton again recorded the most cases in Gwent with 26 – but saw a significant decrease in cases on the previous week (46).

Lliswerry and Uskmouth also recorded 26 cases in those seven days, down from 29 on the previous week.

One of the biggest falls in cases in the region was in Pill, which dropped from 41 to 21.

The fall in cases is reflected by a fall in rolling weekly case rates across Gwent.

The average weekly case rate in Wales in the seven days up to January 26 was 150.1, but only Newport has a higher rate for that period in Gwent, with 162.2. That number was 310.3 in the seven days up to January 17.
