More on the 789 England hospital deaths:

3 wks v 2 wks v last wk v Today Total / NW Total / NW % of England total


529 / 73 NW / 14%

661 / 49 NW / 7% (This was an unexplained low number)

884 / 80 NW / 9% (Also low)

789 / 99 NW / 13% Today

As you see a big NW rise today but 12/13% is the average of the total in most recent days so it may be just that the last two weeks under reported for some reason.

But we might be seeing an uptick in NW deaths as ventilator numbers in hospital and patients are both at record levels so we need to watch what happens sadly. It may yet go higher as the southern regions fall.

Im not going to disagree, but if the Government were to give a road map to lifting restrictions, do you honestly believe people wouldn't moan if they had to scrap it for a genuine concern because, I don't.

Really? I believe this Govt would sell it up as good news, let people think it was a guarantee.

I mentioned this back in October. Although the product link seems to have been gone.

Because we have a vaccine, it is natural for people to become excited at the prospect of having a date in the calendar as to when we all come out of hybernatiin, but I think that is an unreal expectation as there are still too many unknowns at the moment to realistically call a return to normal date.

Funnily enough, was reading about this earlier. Ordered one off Amazon for delivery tomorrow which will be day 5 since my symptoms started so hopefully will give me a bit of an edge if things get worse

1290 all settings deaths

Feels awful that I was relieved to see a number like this, after the ladt couple of days I was fearing the worst.
Still huge numbers though, it wasnt long ago we were horrified that we had broken the 1000 barrier, now 1200 seems to be the norm. :(
