Today marks 'freedom day', bringing an end to over a year of Covid-19 restrictions in England.
Despite a large surge in the number of cases across the country, the Government has continued on its path out of lockdown, hoping that the vaccine uptake will prevent a similar surge in the number of hospitalisations as a result of Covid-19.
Locally, cases have mirrored the national picture, with many areas registering an increase across Slough.
Below are the five worst-affected areas as of July 13, the latest available data.
We have compiled a list of the five areas that have recently registered the highest number of new cases.
These numbers have been compared to the week before for context.
The data also shows the 'rolling rate' of each area, which is calculated by dividing the seven-day total by the area population and multiplying by 100,000.
