Tooting residents are now able to easily see how many coronavirus cases there is in the area.

A new government interactive map has been launched which is accessible to everyone.

The map uses official data to show the extent of Covid-19 in every area of the country within the past seven days. It is updated with new figures every day.

It shows:

• the number of cases in the past seven days
• the rate of infection per 100,000 people in the population
• how the area compares to the rest of England

Each area, known as a 'Middle Super Output Area', has an average population of 7,200.
