AN AREA of Gwent has one of the highest rolling Covid case rates in all of Wales.
Coronavirus is no longer suppressed in any area of Gwent, latest figures have shown.
All of Gwent's local authorities have at least three areas where coronavirus is prevalent in the community.
Just a few weeks ago, the majority of Gwent had the virus suppressed according to the MSOA (middle layer super output areas) data released by Public Health Wales.
And two areas of the region now have covid rates above 100 cases per 100,000 people over the last week.
That includes an area of Torfaen which has one of the highest seven day coronavirus rates in the country.
Nine new cases have been reported in West Pontnewydd and Thornhill in that time period, giving it a case rate of 133.9 per 100,000 residents.
That is in the top ten per cent of case rates across the whole of Wales.
Caerphilly South doesn't fall in to that bracket, but does have a rolling covid rate of 112 per 100,000 residents after 12 confirmed cases in the last week.
