Testing today up over 200K too on yesterday btw!

715, 778 for those 6391 cases which is 0.9%positivity.

v 510, 944 for 5455 yesterday. (1.06 positivity)

The numbers themselves are not important as sub 1% positivity is unprecedented.

But the reality though cases are up that number is not obviously worse than yesterday given the big rise in tests.

This often happens after weekends.

It's totally bizarre that someone working in the health care sector should be opposed to medical care involving drugs. It's impossible to see how someone who presents a health risk (by not being vaccinated) should be allowed to work with vulnerable people.

Exactly. If my older relatives were to become ill because they didn't fancy having the one thing to prevent it all they'd be fucking hell to pay.
 
Regional Scoreboard:

Most places up a little. But everyone still below 1000.

North West still highest up 81 to 889.

Other regions Yorkshire 735 (down 10). North East 305 (up 29), East Midlands 623 (up 12), West Midlands 677 (up 83), East 495 (up 110), London 629 (up 107), South East 805 (up 293) - biggest rise and closest to NW ad South West 276 (up 23).
 
Greater Manchester Summary:


But GM had a good day and the numbers are a real surprise.

Total 400 - so up 32 - which is less than pro rata for NW rise so % of NW total fell to 45%.

Some GM places were up (Stockport by 17 to 46 the most - though still well down week to week again).

Three in the 20s at 24, 25 and 26 - the now usual suspects but with Trafford the highest of the three, Bury in the middle and Oldham lowest.

However, the real big news is that Manchester was not top - not even second - but with its lowest numbers in many a month at 53 (only 7 ahead of Stockport) it was behind two other boroughs.

Wigan at 54 and Bolton at 58.

So the entire GM scoreboard was the most equally split it has been since last Summer with every borough between 24 and 58. And most were down v last week and those up only barely - so the weekly Pop for GM will be on its way down almost everywhere still. Which is what we need to see.

That is like the good days when Covid was for a few weeks a memory last Summer.
 
England hospital data:

Really good news. As expected after the Monday uptick back to good falling numbers across the board.

Patients: down in day 644 to 10, 121 - good chance we will see four figures tomorrow. Was last week 13, 511.

Ventilators down in day 102 to 1556 - was 1956 last week.

Regional numbers to follow.
 
UK patients total today is 12, 165. Ventilators 1705.




England hospital regions:

Patient // Ventilators // change in past 24 hours and v last week

East down 68 to 1032 v 1474 // down 2 to 134 v 156

London down 86 to 1932 v 2490 // down 26 to 485 v 552

Midlands down 154 to 2304 v 3003 // down 21 to 328 v 413

NE & Yorks down 113 to 1629 v 2076 // down 17 to 200 v 247

North West down 82 to 1540 v 1978 // down 14 to 182 v 251

South East down 106 to 1248 v 1859 // down 17 to 174 v 249

South West down 35 to 436 v 631 // down 5 to 53 v 88


Everywhere down in both measures.
 
Anyone know the latest vaccination figures..got to be close to 21 million?

When lockdown is eased local areas will have to have a lower number of positive cases before restrictions are eased.

Just read that under tighter Scottish restrictions Covid rates in Dundee would have to fall to 3 (three) a day before pubs can re-open !

Unless they can't have it for health reasons they should be sacked. They have a duty of care to people they are looking after. Might seem harsh but the more people that turn it down, the longer this will go on and the more lives it will destroy.

Whisper it quietly, it may be a race/ cultural issue.
 
GM Weekly Pop Score table:

Cases across the past 7 days measured per 100,000 population to allow direct comparison.

Borough / Weekly Pop Score today / Score 7 days ago / Up or down by / Positive is infections across the pandemic of those who have tested positive in each borough. This rises daily.
