Tue.’s rate of positive tests in RCT has been 4.3% – the largest in Wales – Mr Gething formerly alerted a positive rate of 4% across Wales would trigger a domestic lock-down.

“The rest are proof of society transmission.”
1 cluster is associated with a rugby club, & a pub within the lower Rhondda valley, the other is linked to a club outing to the Doncaster races, that the minister stated suspended off in a show of pubs on the way.
