Derbyshire | A Long History

Derby is the county town of Derbyshire gained city status in 1977, originally it was a Roman settlement, but during the industrial revolution the city was rocketed into motion. Since the 18th century, Derby has become one of England’s engineering hubs being the home of the Rolls Royce factories.

Like the rest of the United Kingdom (UK), Derby first went into lockdown late March and came out in June. In September Derby was experiencing a much higher Covid-19 infection rate than the rest of the population, and was thrown back into lockdown. It is believed this is linked to the prevalence of young people in public-facing roles contributed greatly to the rise.

As of right now, late November, Derby is still experiencing a much higher COVID-19 infection rate than the rest of the population even though that rate has still fallen.
