New map shows hundreds of UK towns and villages untouched by coronavirus
Reading now: 685
Hundreds of UK towns and villages have yet to record a single death from coronavirus, new postcode data shows. A map released by the Office for National Statistics suggests that most fatalities linked to Covid-19 have been in densely populated cities such as London, Birmingham and Manchester, and along the transport routes which link them together.
However, areas which are further away appear to have been spared the worst of the highly infectious virus. The ONS data suggests that large parts of Wales and the south west and east of England have been untouched by the deadly bug.
The map - which only covers England and Wales - analyses 20,283 deaths linked to Covid-19 registered between March 1 and April 17.
