    The number of positive covid patients at Harrogate District Hospital has increased significantly in the last seven days.

    Currently 34 patients are confirmed to have covid — nine more than last week.

    The figures come as the district’s seven-day covid rate stands at 1,290 per 100,000 people. The rate has steadily increased since dropping to 1,171 on January 17.

    The North Yorkshire average is 1,090 and the England rate is 1,082.

    UK Health Security Agency statistics now include figures for reinfections.

    Latest figures show that since January 24, the Harrogate district has recorded a total of 1,953 infections.
