As the roadmap gets into full swing and people start to return to 'normal' Cumbria has some great news.
Figures released by the government show Carlisle has the second lowest number of Covid-19 cases in England.
After the hard work and dedication of the public the entire county has less than 60 cases of coronavirus.
Allerdale - 9
Barrow-in-Furness - 6
Carlisle - 4
Copeland - 11
Eden - 9
South Lakeland - 18
These numbers show the total number of people with at least one positive Covid-19 test result, either lab-reported or lateral flow device in the most recent 7-day period.
Positive rapid lateral flow test results can be confirmed with PCR tests taken within 72 hours.
If the PCR test results are negative, these are not reported as cases.
