Eight areas of Lancashire have recorded new coronavirus cases, according to Public Health England figures released today (June 15).
A total of 10 new cases were confirmed across Lancashire in the last 24 hours – slightly down on the 12 reported yesterday.
Fylde and Wyre posted the biggest rise with two while cases in six other parts of the county each rose by two.
No new cases were recorded in Burnley, Hyndburn, Pendle, Preston, Rossendale and West Lancashire.
There are now 4,888 cases of coronavirus confirmed in Lancashire as a whole, but it is highly likely that cases where no symptoms have been shown are not included in this figure due to limited testing being done.
