THERE are no central Fife wards in the two highest categories of seven day positive infection rates, according to the latest data released.
The Scottish Government’s neighbourhood map shows which council wards are worst hit by Covid-19 to a weekly average based on a population per 100,000 people.
The most recent data, for the week up to and including Boxing Day, there are no central wards in the highest two categories of 400+ and 22-399.
Ballingry, Cardenden, Lochgelly East, and Lochgelly West and Lumphinnans are all in the third highest of 100-199 infections per 100,000 people.
Cowdenbeath North, Kelty East, and Thornton and Kinglassie all feature in the 50-99 range.
The rest of the wards – Cowdenbeath South, Crossgates and Halbeath, Hill of Beath and Kingseat, Kelty West, and Lochore and Crosshill – are all in the bottom category which Public Health Scotland describe as ‘suppressed’.
Across the whole of Fife there is a seven day positivity rate of 6.3 per cent.
