Must be a bit of a relief for people that Oldham avoided a lockdown, and is just subject to a slight tightening of current restrictions regarding mixing with other households, as the vast majority of new cases has been spreading between households, backed-up with extra engagement in the communities of the worst hit areas, fingers crossed this works out.
Up to date map of areas of concern -
Oldham and parts of Blackburn and Pendle are facing extra restrictions to stem the spread of Covid-19.
Residents in those areas are not allowed to socialise with anyone from outside their household, as of midnight on Saturday.
Residents will be advised to avoid using public transport except for essential travel, and the number of people who can attend weddings, civil partnerships and funerals will be limited to household members and close family, with no more than 20 people.
Restaurants will also be encouraged to halt walk-ins, and only seat people who make reservations in advance.
