Testing is a major focus area for the council as it plans how to recover from the outbreak.

There have been 10 new covid cases in the Harrogate district, according to data published by Public Health England. Yesterday the district recorded 15 cases - the highest number of daily infections since March. 

It brings the total number of people in the district who have tested positive to the virus since the pandemic began to 7,815.

The daily number of cases reported is now based on PCR and lateral flow tests returning positive results. However, if someone with a positive lateral flow test later has a negative result with a PCR test, the earlier result will be removed.
