or.. just let it rip... thousands and thousands infected, dead with a overwhelmed health care system
If only it was as black and white as you made it out to be, it’d be simple..
They’re putting ’infected’ signs on people’s doors. The military are patrolling the streets. You can’t move from state to state.
All advice, pre 2020, was to NOT doing anything like this for a respiratory virus and the ONLY thing that changed was the Chinese saying how brilliantly lockdown worked…
 
A ZOE app study shows cases have risen by 19% over the past 7 days. And for first time in a while all three measures - cases, hospitalisations and deaths are rising in tandem. Though deaths at the lower level as on that graph above.

Their study shows the highest % of new cases is in the 18 to 35 age group and the second most in all children under 18.

This is exactly what the 7 day Stats for cases for Northern Ireland has been showing with slightly different age range coverage there.

ZOE also found that 30% of those who test positive have been double jabbed. But of course most of them will not become hospital patients.
Stopping counting ‘cases’ has got to be the next step, as has stopping testing people with no symptoms. Without that, this pandemic will never end, even when it’s ended….

2 of my work colleagues (we are an essential service) need a permit to come to work as they live in an area with higher infection rates. They can only get a permit if they have had at least one jab. One of the guys was having his morning coffee in his front yard and a cop drove past and told to him he had to get back in his house immediately (and show ID to prove he lived there).

Just watched tim Spector latest video on YouTube..rather downbeat, looks like we're in for a tricky autumn and winter
 
ENGLAND HOSPITAL DEATHS

100 with 10 North West.

Last week 80 with 8 NW, week before 64 with 19 NW.

By region: East 8, London 13, Midlands 18, NE & Yorkshire 28, North West 10, South East 10, South West 13

First time we have had three successive days of 100 or over deaths here since last Winter.

As expected the other regions are now adding in more and more cases and NW is now nowhere near the top contributor every day. But there are 6 regions and just 1 North West - so overall numbers will rise.

Although these MAY be close to the peak of the deaths per day as today's will be from 2 or 3 weeks ago about where cases rose up to and cases have somewhat levelled off in the regions since then.

Much of recent rises have not been driven by England but the other home nations - which is unusual but as Ayrshire noted last night may be linked to the later back to school after Summer in England. As schoolchildren are major factors in the cases to bump up the numbers but not in becoming hospital patients - which is really all that matters.
 
ENGLAND HOSPITAL DEATHS:

The 100 by trust in the NW:

2 each in Blackpool & Manchester (that Blackpool holiday peak of cases during the hot weather 2 weeks back maybe creating its legacy now)

1 each in Bolton, Pennine Acute (Oldham/Rochdale), St Helens, Tameside, Wirral & Wigan.


By age group:- 0 - 19 (1), 20 - 39 (6) , 40 - 59 (12) 60 - 79 (38), 80 PLUS (43)


19% of deaths under 60 today. The older you are the more Covid risks you. That will never change probably.

But clearly the vaccinations skewed towards the older ages and the sheer numbers catching it under 40 are tipping the scales a bit.
 
Scotland

4925 cases
Was 3367 last week (It's stopped doubling if we're really searching for a glimmer of light)

11.5% positive
Was 9.0% last week


426 in hospital (+35 from yesterday, or +109 from last Thursday for the cases don't matter brigade) With case numbers continuing to rise and the huge numbers only having been seen this week, expect hospital numbers to increase even more rapidly in the near future.

47 in ICU, +3 from yesterday, or +14 from last Thursday.


14 deaths
