Northern Ireland 1678 past week cases by age range (2 age unrecorded)

0 - 19 (649) 38.7%

20 - 39 (624) 37.2%

40 - 59 (335) 20.0%

60 - 79 (62) 3.7%

80 PLUS (8) 0.4%

Around just one in 25 still over 60 catching it and 3 out of every 4 doing so under 40.

The 40 - 59s though have been edging up as I expect more and more there get double vaccinated and go back to more normal lives. Some inevitably then catching it. Hopefully mildly because of the vaccines.

So total deaths with out of hospital England to come = 21

Last week it was 29 and that became 27 on all settings later.


And cases from the three nations with England to come are 3677

Last week it was 2529 - England later added 9096 for a UK total of 11, 625

Yesterday's England total was 18, 702. But we believe that did include some catch up from the data missing on the previous days.

So we could be anywhere around 20,000 - up or down - today.

Good points - but immunity against the current strain does pass on to future strains to some degree.

I agree it will do. And then we vaccinate with a specific vaccine into that population. And that's where I think it ends (as a mass phenomenon). Unless it makes a big 'jump' it wont be able to replicate and spike at the levels we see occasionally, it will just be a slow background burn. At least that's how I imagine it. COuld be totally wrong!

Bury and Bolton had good days in GM again today. Would love to know what they are suddenly doing right.

The two lowest - Bolton 112 and Bury the only one below 100 on 88. And both down week to week as well.

Everyone else is a bit down on yesterday but not by that much and all well up week to week.

Manchester just sub 400 and Wigan just over 200 again.

Stockport still cut what was a 200 lead by Trafford 2 weeks ago in the overall Pop Score numbers to just 25 after today after catching up 17 Pop Score points again in a day following another big score from Trafford.

Sadly Russia is well and truely under the hammer of Delta now. The difference between high and moderate vaccination levels is clear for all to see now

My favourite eatery shut after a member of kitchen staff tested positive.

Hammer and sickle, I fear. Generations to come, assuming there are any, will rightly puzzle over why Russia allowed people into the country for a silly football tournament when ambulances were already queuing for hours outside already full hospitals.
The death rate seems to be high, yet the reported new cases figures seem to be constant.
