HERE IS THE CURRENT HEAT MAP FOR STOCKPORT SHOWING THE CONSISTENT PATTERN FOR THE AGES CREATING COVID CASES RIGHT NOW

IT IS MUCH LIKE EVERYWHERE ELSE IN TERMS OF MOST ARE YOUNGER AND FEW ARE OLDER - THE REVERS OF THE WAVE IN THE WINTER WHERE YOU CAN SEE A LOT OF OLDER PEOPE IN THE DARK PURPLE AND BLACK AT THE TOP WHO ARE FAR LESS VISIBLE IN THE CURRENT WAVE.

THOUGH YOU WILL NOTE THE BLUE HAS RISEN A LITTLE INTO THE OLDER GROUPS SINCE WE OPENED UP
 
There were 7 Covid deaths in the month of August of Stockport residents.

The last was 1 on 20 August. Up to yesterday. Latest data.

In the month of January there were 108.

As you say cases look scary. But once you look at the numbers like this perspective changes swiftly,

Schools open next week. People need to realise it’s not just schools driving cases. Scotland was going up well before schools went back but the rest thing to say is ‘it’s due to schools going back’

More likely that as Stockport has always been near the lower end of cases there are more people to infect as less with natural immunity. Are many getting hospitalised? If not doesn’t matter whatsoever.

Yes, my part of Scotland had very low cases throughout, now loads of us around here have it, or have had is the last few weeks. Maybe a few getting hospitalised not heard much but the vast majority seem to get a few symptons for a week and then okay.

Yes I agree and did say earlier that Scotland was rising before schools went back making it all the more puzzling England kept falling.

Though the regions falling most are in the south.

You may be right about Stockport - with the lowest cases per population across the entire pandemic - having more susceptible. Could be as simple as that. Though Stockport also has the best vaccination numbers in the ten boroughs too which should balance things out.

Sadly the government hospital data locally is well out of date

But admissions into Stockport between 15 & 22 Aug were 5 - 6 - 8 - 5 - 6 - 6 - 5 - 6

Which looks pretty low and consistent.

On those same days it posted these cases 106 - 151 - 112 - 118 - 148 - 167 - 146 - 108

Today it posted 190.

Nothing very obvious there .

Patients IN hospital in Stockport for that same week above were:

11 - 18 - 22 - 28 - 29 - 25 - 19 - 21

Again no exponential rise


22 on Aug 24 is the latest number for here.

There were 3 or 4 on ventilators in Stockport between 15 and 22 Aug and 2 on 24 Aug (latest number)

So again a fraction of the daily cases. Which I agree mean little unless you see this disconnect.

I’ve pretty much accepted that the vaccine doesn’t really stop you getting it or passing it on, but does stop you getting seriously ill. Natural immunity is what I think everyone will end up with, if they have had the being first then great you will be even more protected after catching it.
 
So the end of testing will soon be with us..so says dr John Campbell
 
Israel posted 11,000 new cases today and that’s before the schools reopen. In the Netherlands, cases are rising fastest in the 0-12 age range, with 2/3 of the country‘s schools back.

Why now though? Why didn't the 0-12 age range all catch Covid last year? They all went to school and were not vaccinated.
