Now biden is in charge they are motoring through the vaccinations , trump had no plan to distribute the vaccine so they had barely started

No it isn't Biden or vaccinations, not yet.2 weeks ago which is how long they take to kick in only 3% were done.

I requested on here yesterday that any political comments are to go into the relevant thread in the politics sub forum. It isn't that difficult a concept to grasp, surely.

Not at the levels in places like America and they will take 3 or 4 weeks to be having any substantial impact. Even hers will be mid late February and though we are vaccinating the most vulnerable to reduce hospital/death most cases are in age ranges not yet done.

Is that not because they aren't done yet?

Yes, but most cases have always been in the younger groups.

19 January - the peak day of the deaths in England hospitals so far (and hopefully not JUST so far) added only 1 today and is at 842 on that actual day.

This is actually lower than the peak deaths in England hospitals in the first wave in April (was about 900) - despite there being many more in hospital at the peak in this wave as during the one last year.

So we are saving many more of those who get infected happily. Especially as we all feared a wave going into Winter would be more deadly than one coming out of it with new variants that are far more infective creating them too.

That 842 for 19 Jan was at 787 on the fifth day which is the highest since April.~

Here are the 5 day totals from 1 Jan with that peak BOLDED and the five day totals since it showing the clear fall.


(Jan 1) 394 - 408 - 418 - 504 - 547 - 555 - 557 - (Jan 8) 567 - 601 - 635 - 694 - 715 -683 - 667 - (Jan 15) 640 - 712 - 720 - 764 - 787 - 721 - 708 - (Jan 22) 690 - 666 - 675 - 691 - 658 - (Jan 27 AND latest 5 day total) 618.

The dates after 27 Jan are four day total for Jan 28 (595 - lowest since 15 Jan), three day total for Jan 29 (415 - lowest since Jan 8), two day total for Jan 30 (220 - lowest since 1 Jan).

Yesterday's 43 is also the lowest first day total since 3 Jan.

US and India. Impact of rising immunity (from infection rather than vaccination).

Wow Looks very good news.

Looks like tests were well down over the weekend though. But still over half a million.

Thanks didn't notice India. Seems likely countries that have had so many cases,and probbly many that went untested.Will keep an eye on Brazil which probably has similar high cases and many missed too. Agree think it will be April beore we see a substantial vaccination impact on world case numbers.
