Leader of the Council sets out the current infection rate in Bucks, & what we can do about it. Bucks Council Covid-19 update, 15th Sept
Web page Editor’s note – The update correctly argues that we all have a part to play in keeping Bucks safe.

So by complying with guidance we help keep infection rates down everywhere. To borrow from a certain supermarket – ‘Every little helps’.
