There was only one new positive test case of Covid-19 in Caerphilly County Borough between July 27 and August 10, according to data from Public Health Wales.

As of August 10, a total of 745 people had tested positive for coronavirus in the borough.

A total of 12,681 tests have been carried out in borough, which has a population of around 180,000.

Public Health Wales’ most recent figures show that 13 new cases have been confirmed in Wales, with a further two reported deaths linked to the virus.

It brings the number of recorded cases in Wales to 17,476, with 1,581 deaths.
