Coronavirus (2021) thread

Do they have the same testing regime in Scottish schools?

As in the rest of the UK? I think that is the case, however don't quote me on that.

England hospital deaths wk to wk:

537 / 69 NW / 13%

407 / 63 NW / 15% (fall of 24% wk to wk)

315 / 64 NW / 20% (fall of 23% wk to wk)

307 / 106 NW / 34% (fall of 3% wk to wk)

174 / 40 NW / 23% (fall of 43% wk to wk)

132 / 20 NW / 15% (fall of 24% wk to wk) TODAY

Aside from that odd blip 2 weeks ago immediately cancelled by the exact rise needed to do so next week that averages very consistently at a fall of about 23/24% a week. The huge NW total that week was clearly the issue.

 

[worsleyweb]

England hospital deaths 132 with 20 from NW - versus 174 and 40 last week.

Another lot of back dating. Some cases from March and April last year.

And 20 more than a month old again.

Another good fall

Because it's not been approved over here yet. Unless you think we should've fucked the approval process off?

I think it has just been approved today in the EU. Strange if they've approved it before the UK as the EU has generally been slower in the approval process,

Another good fall

Especially given three of them were more than 9 MONTHS old and two of those from March and April 2020. The other June. How on Earth does it take that long to figure out the cause of death? And if it does then it surely cannot 'obviously' be Covid.

This huge number of cases from many weeks ago is distorting the daily numbers quite a bit. Still quite a few coming in every day that happened in January. 12 of the 132 today were from then. And only 110 today occurred in the past month.

I think EMA approved the Modena one first too.

Yes that’s right about J&J.

COVID-19: European Union approves Johnson & Johnson's single-shot coronavirus vaccine

The European Union has ordered 200 million doses of the Johnson and Johnson vaccine - but it's unclear when they will be ready.

I think the reduced availability of other vaccines may have had an impact on the speed of the decision.

Northern Ireland data:


1 death - was 2 last week

208 cases - was 166 last week

11.7 % positivity - was 8.3% last week

1311 Weekly rolling cases total - was 1277 yesterday and 1226 last week

This has now clearly started to go up after falling for weeks as has the positivity rating.

14 Care Home outbreaks - was 17 yesterday and 18 last week

183 patients - was 189 yesterday and 242 last week

18 Ventilated - waa 19 yesterday and 27 last week


So again some current signs of concern in the cases and testing but all the other measures that probably matter more today - patients, ventilarors, care home outbreaks - have all fallen.

If that carries on the cases will not be a problem.

Old news,it was approved yesterday.That's the one jab for me.

 

[Healdplace]

So total deaths today with out of hospital in England only to add (and probably some of the old cases in England removed) is:- 162.

Wk to wk: 661 v 508 v 367 v 352 v 199 v 162 TODAY

 

[Healdplace]

And again today we are over 1000 cases for the three nations - not boding well for England numbers coming up.

Total today 1080 - 71 up on yesterday

Wk to Wk:- 1800 v 1845 v 1731 v 1130 v 894 v 1080 TODAY

 

[Rammy Blue]

132 England hospital deaths by region:

32 Midlands, 25 East, 25 NW & Yorkshire, 20 North West, 13 London, 11 South East, 6 South West~

11 Norfolk. 8 Leeds the most 5 in Liverpool most in NW.

By age:

40 - 59 (13) 9.9%

60 -79 (54) 40,9%

80 PLUS (65) 49.2%

As per your other post too, it just makes a slight mockery of trying to spot trends in the ages of deaths if a number of them are from 12 months ago! Makes it harder than ever to try to establish how much the vaccines are working - is there any “simple” way of putting the figures together for the deaths/ages of the last couple of weeks I wonder?

UK records 6,609 Covid cases and 175 deaths

 

[Healdplace]

1, 597, 522 pillar 1 & 2 tests

Another new record.

 

[Invisible Man's Bandage]

Yesterday’s vaccination numbers

1st dose: 260,809

2nd dose: 93,563

 

[worsleyweb]

UK records 6,609 Covid cases and 175 deaths

bearing In mind 1500 people a day I believe die every day in the uk that figure has to be taken in that context and many of those 175 will have been weeks ago. Cases are lower than I thought with the return to schools. Good figures.

Yeah, I would’ve thought case numbers would’ve been higher given how many extra tests are being done on those returning to school. To that end, the case numbers are encouraging. Just hope that with all schools going back and the obvious mixing that brings doesn’t lead to a big spike
