    Rotherham was added to the government's official coronavirus watchlist yesterday - after the infection rate rose from 62.5 per 100,000 population in the week ending 21 September to 91.6 in the week ending 28 September, according to data analysed by the BBC.

    Reacting to the news council leader Chris Read said: "The data shows us that the infection is occurring across all areas of the borough and within all age groups.

    "Rotherham is a strong and caring community, we need the community to once again rally together to keep each other safe and to protect our most vulnerable residents and all of our frontline workers.”

    Consultant in public health for Rotherham, Jacqueline Wiltschinsky added: “We do not want to have tighter restrictions imposed but that is what will have to happen unless we can work together now to control the virus in Rotherham.”
