The Telegraph reporting that the next ONS report on Tuesday may well show deaths slightly below the long term average. Even though the latest figures showed they were 18% higher the rate they are dropping will mean they should go below the mean very soon.
 
GM scoreboard:

434 - up from 347 - 48.8% of the NW total of 889 - down 34. Up from 37.6 % yesterday.


Wk to wk: 1203 v 1042 v 906 v 684 v 553 v 434 today - Slow fall week to week.
\


Manchester 83 - up from 51. Pop score up 15 to 9073. Weekly cases 542. Weekly Pop up 1 to 98. First rise here in a while but by only 2 week to week.


Wigan 60 - up from 43. Pop score up 18 to 8362. Weekly cases 394. Weekly Pop down 3 to 120.


Rochdale 55 - up from 46. Pop score up 24 to 8997. Highest rise of the day. 9000 club beckons tomorrow. Weekly cases 308. Weekly Pop up 3 to 138.


Bolton 53 - up from 35. Pop score up 19 to 8507. Weekly cases 369. Weekly Pop down 4 to 129.


Salford 38 - up from 35. Pop score up 14 to 8461. Weekly cases 276. Weekly Pop down 5 to 106.


Tameside 38- up from 33. Pop score up 17 to 7553. Weekly cases 254. Weekly Pop down 2 to 113.


Stockport 36 - up from 31. Pop score up 12 to 6718. Weekly cases 296. Weekly Pop down 10 to 101. Fifth big fall back to back in weekly Pop but still loses more overall pop score points to Trafford!


Oldham 30 - up from 28. Pop score up 12 to 9166. Weekly cases 239. Weekly Pop down 10 to 101. Like Stockport just misses going below 100 by a case or two today.


Bury 24 - down from 28. Pop score up 12 to 8615. Weekly cases 215. Weekly Pop down 12 to 112. Yet another big weekly Pop fall puts all its woes of the media stories last week behind them.


Trafford 17- equals yesterday's record low of year. Pop score up 8 to 6629. Trafford now 89 clear with best Pop across the pandemic and uncatchable with low numbers like it is getting. Weekly cases 181- lowest in GM. Weekly Pop down 4 to just 77 - best in GM since September. As are quite a few recent GM numbers.




Weekly Pop - Borough / Today / Seven days ago / Up/down by Lowest score is best - going down good/up bad

I add the Pop score across the entire pandemic too at the end per 100. This is essentially the percentage of the population in the borough who have tested positive and been recorded. So the minimum immunity acquired that way - if indeed any lasts up to a year by that route. Unrecorded cases, asymptomatic and, of course, vaccinated immunity are all on top of this base number locally.


Rochdale 138 / 170 / down 32 Testing positive 9.0%

Bolton 129 / 205 / down 76 Testing positive 8.5%

Wigan 120 / 159 / down 39 Testing positive 8.4%


Tameside 113 / 187 / down 74 Testing positive 7.6%

Bury 112 / 208 / down 96 Testing positive 8.6%

Salford 106 / 161 / down 55 Testing positive 8.5%

Stockport 101 / 184 / down 83 Testing positive 6.7%

Oldham 101 / 143 / down 42 Testing positive 9.2%

Manchester 98 / 166 / down 68 Testing positive 9.1%


Trafford 77 / 119 / down 42 Testing positive 6.6%


The big falls continue and several boroughs close to joining Trafford and Manchester with Pop scores below 100 as soon as tomorrow depending on a good day.
 
Obviously! Its all relative though of course.
of course its relative, and i did say i got your gist.

it reminded me of a time, when i was travelling with a friend, i think through the peak district and we passed a road sign that said 5 people have died on this stretch of road in the past year, and she said as we passed it "is that good"

i get all the coming down of infection rates, hospitalisations and deaths is better news, just thought the choice of word stuck a bit, that's all
 
COVID is now in retreat around the world and it's clear that the vaccines are having a massive effect.

The case numbers in the US in particular are falling fast which is incredible since there hasn't been any real national lockdown and they are even removing mask mandates in some states (Texas).

The biggest one for me is just within the last month the linear scale of global cases and deaths has finally started to show cumulative reductions which has never happened in this pandemic until now.

We are on our way out of this folks.

Not to rain on the parade as I do think we have turned a corner. Its starting to grow again in a lot of places. Europe especially. we need to not get complacent just yet.

it could just be the UK strain spreading to other countries which is causing a surge. this is the czech republic for example. and the WHO are warning its gaining tracking in Europe again

Of course it will vary country by country. Eastern Europe is probably amongst the worst places for COVID in the world right now but the trend generally is flattening or heading downwards. More critically this trend is happening in places where restrictions are more lax compared to the UK which makes no sense.

COVID doesn't work like this, COVID exponentially increases in places where transmission is made possible. The only factor acting against this must be herd immunity (very unlikely) or the vaccines.

The US for me is the best example, they have vaccinated more people than anyone else and they have the most unrestrictive society compared to anyone else. They should be seeing crazy numbers of cases but actually both cases and hospitalisations are now reducing despite no changes to society that would cause that to happen.
