As regular readers of my County Council Gartree News column will know, I have been monitoring the positive Covid-19 cases. I have been looking at the numbers and rates per 100,000 daily for the Kibworth and Great Glen Middle layer Super Output Area (MSOA) since mid October. There was an unexpected spike in the numbers for this MSOA for the 7 days to 23 January. The increase in case numbers continued for a few days. Case numbers rose from 26 (rate of 239.2) to 54 (rate of 445.5) over a 4 day period. I was alerted to a possible outbreak and contacted the Director of Public Health over the weekend. He was able to confirm that 35 people (23 residents and 12 staff) had indeed tested positive at a local care home. The residents had been offered vaccinations prior to the regular testing process giving the positive results. The majority were asymptomatic. I understand relatives were informed as a matter of course.

Two families were lucky to escape, without apparent injury, a near head on collision on Saturday 7 September. A Mini, heading west, collided with a Mercedes saloon heading east – on the wrong side of the road – with such force that it took 50 yards for the Mini to stop. A second car with a very young baby in it could not stop and hit the Mercedes; miraculously, the baby and Mother were unhurt. The driver of the Mini was driven away by Police.
