COVID-19 — Coronavirus

Looking at the UK data Doncaster has actually seen a bigger % rise in case numbers than Leicester in the past 7 days compared with the previous 7 days.

Pretty much every other upper tier area has seen falls in case numbers in the past 7 days v the previous 7.

Manchester for instance fell from 46 to 23 and all other GM areas fell similarly. Bury 12 to 3, Bolton 9 to 7 Oldham 14 to 5. Rochdale 20 to 5. Salford 12 to 5. Stockport 13 to 9. Trafford 16 to 5. Tameside 32 to 19

Even one of the worst impacted cities Sheffield fell from 37 to 20.

There are 36 locations (the Telegraph says) that have had an increase last week to this week. But some are meaningless as Wigan is one - which has risen from 0 to 2! Even the 1 case for Sunderland that took it over the 500 number in the comparison ratings is the only 1 in two weeks so that is a rise of 0 to 1 and meaningless too.

However, several London boroughs have seen more relevant increases. Such as Westminster from 6 to 14.

And Doncaster by comparison went from 11 to 32 whereas in the new case data Leicester only went from 39 to 41.

As I say no idea where the BBC figure over 800 comes from.

it'll be interesting to see what effect this rise in cases in the US has on deaths, as the deaths are still actually trending downwards overall in the US, albeit slowly.



Hopefully the people who are catching it now are the healthier, younger ones and the death rates will carry on going in the right direction.

The death rate will soar in a week unfortunately.

The big upswing in average daily cases started around June 16th. So with Approx 3 weeks until people die, that's 7th July.

Scottish data - fourth straight day with zero deaths. Sunday data reminder though. But still remarkably good news.

Other data 4051 now discharged. 740 in hospital (-38). And 10 in ICU (-3)

New cases just 5. Lowest in a long while even for Sunday data.

I know Scotland has advantages (large rural spaces and few dense conurbation areas) but I cannot be the only one wishing Nicola Sturgeon was running Britain not just Scotland.

Being qualified to run a remote lunatic asylum does not qualify you to run Britain?

Just said on the news that in Florida the average age of those catching it is now 33, compared to 65 three months ago.

Cheers for the figures, it’s a no on the last line thank you.

You probably dislike her because of her pro independent stance. I dislike Boris for Brexit.

But putting those two things aside I'd say she looks and sounds far more competent than Johnson.

19 more deaths in hospital settings with six reported from yesterday. Think last Monday 15 deaths in all settings was the figure. Not great news

Its about a 2/3 week lag from cases to deaths.

but in Florida apparently the average age of new cases is 30 so may not get that big of a spike death wise.

The England hospital total was 20 last Monday.

The UK hospital total was 21.

The all settings figure went down for some reason.

Though only 3 were recorded on the Sunday and yesterday was 6.
