Coronavirus (2021) thread

As I keep telling you you are wrong. I have given you the evidence and you keep ignoring it.
Those in gogglebox aren’t bubbling.

re disgusting. It’s disgusting that some people would rather see greater long term deaths versus less short term deaths

Short term deaths are here and now and are measurable (and are appallingly high).

Long term deaths, how many and over what period, please tell us so we can see whether you have a valid argument or not.

I’d rather do that.

Id rather stay in this full lockdown for longer than come out of it but then go into tiers.

Just keep us going like this.

Spot on, when we look back at this saga people will wonder what was going on when the Government encouraged people to "eat out to help out". Should have been a relaxation in the rules in summer and then a complete lockdown in October when cases were rising, and the tier system should have been binned.

Dipperville and London now paying the price of crazy politics.

Very good post. I have often thought about this and been of the opinion that these test sites are fucking mental! They’re surely covid hotspots?

You can go there with symptoms but you actually don’t have it then pick it up on site as thousands of others with the virus have been there, and because you tested negative you’re here there and everywhere spreading it to all and sundry!

Yeh if I need to go for a test I’ll be travelling abit further and going to the drive thru ones.

Talk about brazen.

The London and South data has been falling. But the North West rising. Does that Zoe ap say anything about that does anyone know?

As I noted last night with the regional data NW was higher than one of the three big number southern regions for the first time since they kept on rising before and after Christmas.

The England death figures have been showing some truly awful upturns in the day of death data as opposed to the raw number you see posted every day which contains deaths tallied across often more than 20 different dates.

Here are the current totals of deaths in hospital ON the actual day references as they stand today day by day from Christmas Eve. We are still even today adding unusually big numbers like 6 or 7 from days over Christmas because of the delay over registering. But these will reduce now we are back to 'normal' and far enough away from there for too many add ons to be likely.

1 Jan 456

2 Jan 458

3 Jan 441

4 Jan 525

5 Jan 547 - this is the last 5 day total and is the highest at 5 days since the 16 April just ONE WEEK after the peak of the first wave, Over the week before it fell from a peak at 5 days of 737


If you look at the 4 days since then things look continuingly grim

6 Jan at just 4 days is at 537

7 Jan at just 3 days is at 498 (this 3 day number has risen very fast in the past week alone. Last Sunday the equivalent number was just 292

8 Jan at just 2 days is at 297 - and this is weekend data always low.

Aside from today (always lower on Sunday) the death numbers for the FIRST day have been 88, 90 and 89.

These are well up on even recent past days and are also back at the kind of level we saw within days of the peak of the first wave in April.

That is good news IF right now we are near the peak again. But not if it keeps going up. As it means we will peak this wave well above the number of deaths we had in April.

563 all settings deaths

54, 940 cases

 

[ayrshire_blue]

Scotland

1877 cases at 10,0% positive

3 deaths. But this is Sunday data.

1598 in hospital (up 2)

123 on ventilators (up 14) Biggest daily rise here in ages.

Maybe some encouraging signs in terms of case numbers dropping. Obviously they need to drop much, much more but perhaps signs of being on the right track.

 

[Healdplace]

Unfortunately NW up by 409 to second highest yet at 7565 cases

 

[mosssideblue]

563 all settings deaths

54, 940 cases

Alarming numbers for a Sunday
