Helston residents can now see how many Coronavirus cases there are in and around the area.

The government interactive map is accessible to everyone.

The map uses official data to show the extent of Covid-19 in every area of the country within the past seven days. It is updated with new figures every day.

It shows:

• The number of cases in the past seven days
• The rate of infection per 100,000 people in the population
• How the area compares to the rest of England

Data for Helston and the surrounding area

Helston: 4 cases

Data for The Lizard, Porthleven and Wendron is suppressed.

Level rates are suppressed where there have been fewer than 3 cases in a seven-day period. This is to protect the privacy of individuals.

(Zoom in on the map and you can see the road names.)
