Well, I've heard many people say we've the highest incidence in the country, but I cannot find the evidence to support that claim exactly, not that I want it to be true... But we are definitely high up in the figures since the Government decided to ease restrictions (blog) in England! According to the Government stats, as reported by the BBC, hospital admissions are rising, and the incidence in Hastings per 100,000 in the week to the 7th of March 2022 was well above the average in England of 465, ie 751!
Worryingly, looking directly at the Government figures for Hastings today (website) it has become even worse than that, whilst the BBC figures stated that there were 695 cases in Hastings last week, now the number of confirmed cases in Hastings for the week up to yesterday has risen exponentially to 1,011...
Folks, please stay safe, and try to do your bit to stop the spread in Hastings!
