Where's that pal?
(about Greece,I'm meant to be going there next month)

The protests today were in three main cities, in Athens, in Syntagma Square in front of the Parliament, Thessaloniki, and Heraklion, in Crete. It generally consisted of those opposed to the idea of being ‘forced’ to be vaccinated or losing their ‘rights‘ (i.e. entry into recreational and cultural venues).

2636 cases in Scotland today

123 in people aged 65+
498 in people aged 45-64

975 in people aged 25-44
1025 in people aged 0-24

The last category broken further

373 aged 0-14
652 aged 15-24

***************

11 deaths

4 aged 85+
4 aged 75-84

2 aged 45-64
1 aged 25-44

****************
Vaccines

8k first doses
11k second doses

That figure for those aged 0-14 is frustratingly constant, no? One would have thought that the schools closing might have had an impact on that by now.

GM Weekly Pop Data after today:~

Borough / Pop Today / 7 days ago / up or down wk to wk/ Testing is % of local population who have tested positive for Covid over past year.

As ever with Pop going up is bad, going down good - the higher the number the better or worse depending on direction moving. The Pop is total cases in past week versus 100,000 POPulation to even out the comparison versus size and expected cases based on numbers living there.



Oldham 694 / 568 / UP 126 Testing positive 12.2%

Rochdale 657 / 488 / UP 169 Testing positive 12.1%

Wigan 605 / 516 / UP 89 Testing positive 11.5%

Salford 570 / 477 / UP 93 Testing positive 11.8%

Trafford 532 / 480 / UP 52 Testing positive 9.3%

Tameside 530 / / 426 / UP 104 Testing positive 10.2%

Manchester 529 / 503 / UP 26 Testing positive 12.5%

Stockport 475 / 352 / UP 123 Testing positive 9.1%

Bury 457 / 368 / UP 89 Testing positive 11.4%

Bolton 371 / 301 / UP 70 Testing positive 12.4%



Oldham and Rochdale well up top now. Oldham tomorrow could be first GM borough with a 700 Pop Score in near on a year. Bolton never got above 456 at its peak in this wave you might recall putting into context,

Not only is Oldham far ahead of that but today BOTH Stockport and Bury topped the highest number Bolton has had in this wave.

So only Bolton is better today than Bolton was when this all started.

Yet everyone will remember Bolton and nobody will even realise the above!

Wigan, Salford and Trafford all up in the 500s now after some big recent numbers.



Stockport LOST 4 points on on its overall Pop Score lead over Trafford to now only be 175 ahead of Trafford.

Stockport up 79 - its highest in months - to 9130 - and Trafford up by 75 - to reach 9301.

The rate these two are going their stay as the only two under the 10K club in GM may not see out July

Bolton up 61 to 12, 369. The lowest Pop Score rise today again If 61 is low.

Manchester up 81 - now on 12, 495 .

Rochdale up 92 just - on 12, 112

Alongside Oldham - who went up 101 - now on 12, 214.

Salford rose by 86 to 11, 789.

Bury up 82 to 11, 432 - so lost some of its lead over Stockport. Shows how case numbers can be misleading as it had many fewer cases but is a smaller borough so it was still a worse day here than Stockport.

Wigan up by a staggering 112 to 11, 487.


With Tameside a lso crashed the 100 Pop Score in a day limit today - very rare here - up 103 to 10,170.

The key message to take from those numbers which I will repeat as I suspect most will never wade through all that data in the post.

AS OF TODAY - Every single borough in Greater Manchester - bar one - is HIGHER in their Pop Score than Bolton was even at its worst a couple of months ago when it was on the national news daily.

Nobody will probably now remember the fact that the ONLY borough not higher than Bolton ever reached when it was on everyone's lips is as of today Bolton itself.

ALL the other 9 are above its peak as of today when Bury and Stockport climbed above 456.

The only real positive is that the growth rate isn’t increasing too much. I suspect we’re in for a few colossal weeks of cases. We’ve got to hope that hospitals can cope and the death rate continues to be low.

Maybe a bit, but still almost half the numbers of the 15-24 range I suppose. I'd guess the numbers gets lower amongst the 0-14 age range as you work down from 14, a lot of kids socialising etc even though not at school.

Sainabury's has done **** all to enforce mask wearing. Complain and you're the one they chuck out not the Anti-masker.
To ask customers to continue to wear masks is classic virtue Signaling - Do as I say not as I do.
