By the way - today is the one year anniversary of the last day not one single person died in the UK from Covid.
 
The Times has a story today (behind pay wall) that every case of a sports professional in a study of football, rugby NFL and others - where players have tested positive - ALL have been traced to a contact indoors. None from playing or training outside.

How could you possibly even work that out given they spend all their time together all week? How can they prove they got it from passing each other in the dressing room and not a 20 minute face to face convo outside an hour earlier? Genuine question! Don't doubt that indoors is a vastly bigger driver of transmission, but it seems relatively fanciful to claim they know fully.
 
90 England hospital deaths by region:

30 Midlands, 23 NE & Yorks, 17 South East, 7 North West, 6 London, 5 East, 2 South West

Mid Yorkshire 10 - most by one trust.

In NW Chester 3, and 1 each in Blackpool, Liverpool, Manchester and Salford.
 
90 England hospital deaths by age:

20 - 39 (1) 1.1%

40 - 59 (10) 11.1%

60 - 79 (38) 42.2%

80 PLUS (41) 45.6%
 
Fairly benign (and obvious?) chart for a Sunday;

For every MSOA in England (~6,700): The % of people with at least 1 vaccination jab (x axis) vs the % of people in that MSOA over 65.

AS you'd expect, it shows that as you have an area with a higher proportion of older people, you have more of the total population vaccinated.

I don't know what is happening in Tidenham in the Forest of Dean, barely anybody vaccinated while Saxmundham have one of the highest vaccination rates but their proportion of over 65s isnt in the highest bracket.

this is slightly less benign, plotting the the % of people with at least 1 vaccination jab (x axis) vs the % of over 65s with at least 1 jab. Very high mean of ~90% over 65s done but a bit of a tail on that data, with weird old Tidenham right out on its own again. It's either an odd outlier with some data collection issues, or nobody is getting jabbed.

  • MSOA = Middle layer super output area
  • Vaccination data from NHS England up to Feb 28th, published 4th March
  • MSOA populations from 2019 mid year census estimates

I don't know what is happening in Tidenham, though as a wild guess the good folk of Gloucestershire aren't willing to enter Wales for a jab in Chepstow, or else they ARE getting jabbed in Wales and the figures aren't being recorded properly. Border issues account for 99% of all known statistical oddities !
 
Regional Scoreboard:


East - down 116 to 398

London - down 227 to 436

South East - down 89 to 461

South West - up 53 to 276


Most of the big falls in the south again.



East Midlands - up 83 to 599

West Midlads - down 8- to 558


Even stevens in the middle



North East - down 89 to 217- lowest here in ages

Yorkshire - down 49 to 732


And

North West - down 13 to 780 A new low but that plateau is still there.
