This should possibly be on the "how Covid affects aviation" thread, but when quoting Covid case rates, one should probably think more about how many current cases of the disease there are, rather than how many cases there have been since March. The website referenced by LTNman seems to show the *cumulative* number of cases - i.e. all cases since counting began in February or March

If a large number of people were infected in September but are not infected now, that might be a good thing, since those people may (and I stress *may*) have some form of immunity and thus leads to a less-than-transparent overall picture of current risk
If you think that Luton is or soon will be a centre for cases being imported into the UK from other countries, then it should be referenced with data around *current* case rates rather than including what was happening in March/April
