As I feared and have been warning about in here for a week or two the midlands and north west are becoming the most infected places in the UK with all the southern regions slipping behind them.
This weekly Pop score table is from 5 day old data as usual but the past few days have not altered the trend.
Note also that whilst Yorkshire continues to by some margin be the least infected region outside the south, the south west followed the other southern regions and has plummeted too and is now back as best in UK as it long has been.
RECALL THAT ON THIS LIST THE LOWER DOWN YOU ARE THE BETTER YOU ARE DOING AS WITH ALL POP SCORES
Here is the latest list:
Region // Weekly Pop Today // Weekly Pop last week // Up/down %
West Midlands // 326 // 428 // down 24%
North West // 286 // 380 // down 25%
London // 283 // 449 // down 37%
East Midlands // 279 // 352 // down 21%
East // 261 // 366 // down 29%
North East // 247 // 287 // down 15%
South East // 228 // 336 // down 32%
Yorkshire // 202 // 237 // down 15%
South West // 176 // 238 // down 26%
Things to notice. Everywhere is falling but some more than others, hence the shift in positions.
If you follow my nightly posts on Greater Manchester you will know as of last night (so 5 days newer than the above) EVERY borough in GM has a weekly Pop score on the same basis as the above regional ones are created between a score of 200 and 274.
Trafford at 200 is just below Yorkshire, Bolton at 274 just below East Midlands. Six of the ten GM boroughs have Pop Scores lower than the North East - so in the 'bottom' third (as in the best) in the above regional list.
So in essence GM right now is better off than the North West in that list as a region. Every GM borough is below the 286 regional score for the NW.
