HOSPITAL DATA
Headline:
Last Sunday England numbers fell by 97 and ventilators by 18. Today Ventilators by just 5. Lowest daily fall in some time and several areas wet up a bit today. But patients on the day fell by 236. A normal weekday sum not weekend which is usually lower. However, most falls today were caused by the usual Sunday low numbers in all regions PLUS all the big drop reversing all of the huge rise added yesterday! Obviously an error Very odd. Perhaps the IT system is acting up. Overall numbers are still falling but slowly.
