An interactive Government map has revealed the 16 areas of Lincolnshire where the coronavirus infection rate is the highest, according to Lincolnshire Live.
The map uses covid data uses the number of coronavirus cases recorded in districts across the county.
This is done over a seven day period, which then allows the experts to calculate a rolling rate of infection.
The map is colour coded to signify the rate.
White means the data is too suppressed, however, yellow means the rate is between 0 and 10, while green is between 11 and 50.
A darker shade of green is used for between 51 and 100, blue for 101 to 200 and a really dark blue for places between 201 and 400.
Anything above 400 is considered to have the highest rate of rolling infection and is marked claret.
The vast majority of Lincolnshire is in the blue zones, according to the data, which goes from a seven day period up to December 22
But as it stands, 16 places in the county have a rolling rate higher than 400 per 100,000 population.
