“Sub-local” coronavirus data released for first time by Public Health Wales
Wales is now reporting confirmed coronavirus cases at a sub-local authority area level.
Today’s Public Health Wales update contained localised coronavirus confirmed case figures for the first time – you can view the graphical representation here on the dashboard under “cases by MSOA” tab. The data visualisation could be slow, however can be speeded up if you selected a local authority area on the drop down option to the right of the map.
The data is not per-ward, however per Middle layer Super Output Areas (MSOA) which are the same areas that are used to generate the ‘heat map’ style graphics in some local lockdown areas. A MSOA is geographically defined area bigger than a ward.
Dr Giri Shankar, Incident Director for the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak response at Public Health Wales, explained: “From today, on our public facing dashboard, we are reporting by sub-local authority area – or “Middle Super Output Area”. These areas of around 2,000-6,000 households used for the purposes of statistical analysis. This allows us to report at local level, while maintaining numbers high enough to protect individual patient details.”
