The 49 areas in Berkshire with almost no coronavirus cases

THERE are 49 areas in Berkshire which have reported barely any coronavirus clusters according to the latest statistics – as Covid-19 cases decrease across the county.

Public Health England breaks down the numbers of Covid-19 cases into neighbourhoods called 'Middle Super Output Areas' (MSOAs), which are smaller than council wards and based on population rather than geographical area.

These areas on the map are coloured white and described as "suppressed", meaning MSOA level rates are suppressed and there have been zero to two cases in a seven-day period. This also protects the privacy of individuals and prevents disclosure.

Government and Public Health England define a coronavirus cluster as an area where there are more than two Covid-19 cases in a population size of 7,500 at any one time.

The seven days up until Thursday, April 1, the latest data, these are the areas in Berkshire with no coronavirus clusters:
