HOSPITAL DATA
Headline:
The steady fall goes on. UK patients fall into the mid 4000s, England in the 3000s. UK ventilators drop below 700 - down over 3400 in 9 weeks. And England now under 600. Every region down on patients and only Yorkshire up on ventilators. Though the North West is still in a sluggish fall at the moment - especially with ventilators seeming to have hit a stall this week. And especially in comparison with the big fall in both by the South East today
