TODAY'S UPDATE



LESS GOOD NEWS TODAY

Predicted cases ARE UP for first day in a week. Only slightly

Today FROM 46, 607 TO 46, 613 TODAY - A rise of just 6 - but it was falling by increasing numbers daily all week.

It WAS 52, 049 last Monday.


Ongoing symptomatic cases did still FALL for eighth day running.

But by a smaller number


FROM 706, 485 TO 700, 377 TODAY - A fall of 6108 following falls of 9353, 7567, 6297 and 1720 in previous days.

IT WAS 738, 359 last Monday.

You would expect a lag to the change in ongoing cases after a rise or fall in daily case numbers.


FIRST HINTS PERHAPS OF THE UPTICK CAUSED BY ENGLAND SCHOOL RETURNS?

Yorkshire and Humber are in fourth.

East Midlands has fallen into the lowest watch zone.

DOWN on 473 / 625 FROM 481 / 633

SOUTH WEST HAS BY FAR FALLEN THE MOST IN THE REAL CASES TOO



West Midlands though is UP on 525 / 750 FROM 510 / 730, South East (DOWN to 544 / 643 FROM 552 / 671) and East (UP to 523 / 684 FROM 514 / 673).

Yorkshire third ahead of North West is UP on 731 / 992 FROM 716 / 973



N Ireland is no longer LOWEST watch zone or best in UK. South West's huge recent falls - in real life as well as Zoe - has put it as the best in the UK now

N Ireland today is UP on 256 / 952 FROM 208 / 852

There are only 3 boroughs in the UK now in either the 1K or 2 K club and NOBODY below 1000. This time last year some rural areas in places like Devon were sub 100 let alone 1000.

Now only the Orkney Islands and the Shetlands are below 3000.

In terms of big cities

Belfast 12, 128, Birmingham 13, 303, Bristol 12, 338. Cardiff 9622, Coventry 10, 470, Derby 11, 838, Glasgow 13, 016 , Hull 13, 485, Leeds 13, 534, Liverpool 14, 861, Manchester 15, 458, Newcastle 13, 873, Nottingham 14, 033, Oxford 10, 677, Preston 14, 841, Salford 15, 158, Sheffield, 12, 097, Stoke 12, 313, Sunderland 14, 097, Swansea 10, 458, York 9950

As you can see the twin cities of Manchester and Salford are the two highest in the UK.

The North West throughout the pandemic has been the epicentre.

Though also worth bearing in mind that Manchester and Salford have the two LOWEST vaccination rates in the 10 GM boroughs.

Often the case with things like this being the two most deprived districts.

Though also worth bearing in mind that Manchester and Salford have the two LOWEST vaccination rates in the 10 GM boroughs.

I think I read, though am far from certain, that some of this is due to large student populations, and vaccines being administered away from these places, but populations recorded being within them, on top of the fact that vaccination rates are generally lower in younger demographics.

Could be wrong.

Could be wrong.

They redistributed the student numbers this time last year after complaints they were not being correctly allocated - creating chaos in the numbers for a few weeks if you recall.

Manchester and Salford ended up with huge Pop Rises of over 1000 because of it.
