Update situation from the Worcestershire County Council -
Update - 30 June 2021
Latest figures show Bromsgrove once again has the highest COVID-19 figures in the county. Public Health in Worcestershire has been monitoring the situation. They have found cases are spreading in residents who are under 30.
Public Health advise everyone to keep following the rules, continue taking a regular rapid flow test and for anyone 18 and over, to get vaccinated.
Councillor Karen May, Leader of Bromsgrove District Council and cabinet member with responsibility for Health and Wellbeing said:
“We have come such a long way over the last year. Bromsgrove has worked hard to reduce the spread off the virus and keep everyone safe. We mustn’t let our hard work go to waste. The numbers are rising in people who have not been vaccinated. Please don’t put off booking yours. It's the best way to keep your family and friends safe. I know, together we can do this, and get the numbers down."
