Four areas of Pembrokeshire have case rates among the worst in Wales.
While MSOA (middle layer super output areas) data released by Public Health Wales shows that two parts of the county have rates north of 1,000 cases per 100,000 people.
That figure means that over the last seven days, more than one per cent of the population of those areas has tested positive for coronavirus.
The worst impacted area in Pembrokeshire is Fishguard.
There were 131 new cases in the area between October 19 and October 25, giving it a case rate of 1,323.0 cases per 100,000 people.
Rates were also above 1,000 in Haverfordwest South, where 97 new cases were recorded in the last week.
While Milford Haven East and St Davids & Letterston were also in the areas of Wales with the top ten per cent of Covid case rates in the country.
