The neighbourhoods managing to 'suppress' coronavirus in Bury St Edmunds, West and Mid Suffolk
A number of areas are managing to 'suppress' the virus thanks to continuing lockdown measures, according to latest Government statistics.
According to Public Health England, several areas in Bury St Edmunds and West Suffolk are now reporting fewer than three coronavirus cases each week.
These areas are marked as places where the virus had been 'suppressed' - and data is restricted to protect individuals' identities.
Nationally covid cases have fallen to the lowest levels since the end of the last lockdown
Health experts warn however that the National Guidelines must still be followed to keep the rates down.
