Wales Covid rates: These areas of Newport, Caerphilly, and Gwent are the worst hotspots

The Covid case rate in Oakdale & Pentwyn, in Caerphilly, is among the worst in Wales over that period.

Almost 200 new cases were recorded in the area during that time (197), giving it a case rate of 2,030.5.

That is the worst Covid case rate in Gwent.

Data suggests that people under 60 who have not received the Coronavirus vaccine are three times as likely to be hospitalised as vaccinated people in the same group.
