Cumulative counts and rate of COVID-19 tests and cases at Council Area (Local Authority) level.

Reported cases include both polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and lateral flow device (LFD) positive test results.

Please note, the sum of tests and cases from all Council Areas will not match the cumulative number of tests and cases in the “Cumulative tests and cases by Health Board” file. This is due to some tests being recorded with incomplete postcodes.
