The 14 neighbourhoods out of 7,201 that haven’t recorded a single COVID death

Just 14 out of 7,201 areas in England and Wales have not recorded a single coronavirus death, new data show.

Stark new figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) show only 0.19% of neighbourhoods went without a COVID-19 death between March last year and April this year.

Of the 14 areas, 13 are in England and one is in Wales. The full list of neighbourhoods can be viewed at the bottom of this page.

The data have emerged after the ONS analysed monthly deaths in each of the 7,201 neighbourhoods, which are officially known as "middle layer super output areas".

On the opposite end of the scale, the ONS data also highlighted how badly COVID has hit other areas in terms of excess deaths.

Excess deaths show the difference between the number of deaths registered in each monthly period and the same period in the past five-year average.

The data showed there were 200 neighbourhoods where the number of deaths was at least double what would normally have been expected between March and July last year.

Crabtree and Fir Vale, in Sheffield, had the largest excess of 167% in this time period with 123 deaths: 77 more than the average of 46.
