Coronavirus cases have fallen in Wirral, as the borough continues to make major leaps forward in the battle against the virus.
In the week up to May 11, Wirral’s infection rate was 94 per 100,000. That is a 24% drop on last week’s figures and the lowest rate seen in Wirral since last June.
The current figure is also well below the highs of more than 1,000 per 100,000 we saw near the end of March. However, it is difficult to make direct comparisons between current figures and those from before the end of March, as free testing is no longer available.
