Central and Southern Brooklyn have Brooklyn’s highest shares of patients testing positive for the coronavirus, new data released by the NYC Department of Health shows. All Brooklyn neighborhoods had at least 30% of patients testing positive, and only Bensonhurst and Bay Ridge had less than 41%.

We and other journalists have been asking the city for days to release neighborhood-by-neighborhood data, and this is the first — very limited — release of those numbers. This is only the percentage of patients who were tested for the coronavirus that had positive results, not the distribution of coronavirus cases.

Over 51.26%:

Borough Park, East Flatbush, Flatbush, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Crown Heights, Williamsburg, Bushwick, Greenpoint
