Good news from the data released today the Coronavirus R number is believed to below 1 for the country as a whole.

The north west is estimated to be between .7 and .9 and the North East and Yorkshire between .8 and 1 which should mean that Leeds and other areas in T3 move down soon and crowds can return to grounds.

This is the lowest the R number has been since the heady days of August and Eat Out to Help Out.
