Coronavirus (2021) thread

[Well Wisher]

You guys... Two good results for you today so you turn to the old faithful covid thread for your misery fix. Why am I here? Because I'm stoopid and I click whatever's top. What's 2nd top? The "which famous person died today" thread. FFS. I'm off to rag cafe where they've got genuine reasons to be miserable, which makes me happy.

Off to City this afternoon for mine, will if I'm ok afterwards have a wander round outside the ground.

Was really rough for 36 hours after my initial AZ jab, fine on the second one hopefully, the PF one I think I'm getting won't give me any trouble.

I was rough with my first az jab, temp of 103 etc, but nothing at all after the second. Heard a few saying the same, particularly for males. Hope it's the same for you.

I was the same after my first AZ, no problems with the second. Felt a bit off after the booster overnight but that could have also down to the flu jab as I had both at the same time.
Hope it goes well for you.

Been lucky - had the first two AZ jabs and Pfizer last week as booster and nothing more with each than the usual mildly sore arm for 24 hours or so and being very tired and sleeping well on the night of the very first AZ jab in February. But that could just as easily have been the stress of that being my first trip beyond my immediate area and in a taxi in 11 months. But then I have been having flu jabs every winter since 1999 (as I was a carer for a long time) and pneumonia boosters every few years. So probably just used to jabs.

 

[Healdplace]

62 deaths and 30,305 cases - both good falls on last week. England lowest cases since mid September. Down over 7000 week to week.

Details in the data thread for anyone wanting more.

PF booster almost 2 hours ago and pleased to say I feel fine, by this time after my first AZ I was already as rough as Sean Dyche's voice.

When you look at the cases as well you can see blips downwards for there school holidays too.

the speed of increase is startling.

but then you look at vaccine rates and they directly correlate, the highests cases = lowest vaccinations rate.

Still 1000 people being admitted to UK hospitals every day

 

[Invisible Man's Bandage]

I was talking to one of my German colleagues earlier and I asked him about the situation in Saxony, Eastern Germany (he lives in Dresden).

I’d read that cases, hospitalisations and deaths were going up rapidly and he said that his wife, who is a nurse, says that 90% of the Covid patients in her hospital are elderly & unvaccinated. The vaccination rate in Saxony is around 45%, which is the lowest in Germany.

Sounds bad, but the reality is that works out at less than 1 person per UK hospital and the vast majority will be just precautionary and be out in a few hours.

The one person per hospital meme is just that, a meaningless meme. It includes all sorts of institutions that would never, in reality, take a covid patient.

The average stay is, about a week, not a "few hours". That's just obviously false. We currently have about 9000 inpatients with covid and 1000 a day being admitted.

9000/1000 = average stay, 9 days, very roughly.

1000/day sounds bad, and is bad.

How many have recovered and are released daily?

How many have recovered and are released daily?

We're currently at just under 10k in hospital and it seems so far this week to be quite level between 9000 - 9500 before that there was a definate upward trend of 100/200 extra a day.

for comparison in January that was nearly 40k. This time last Nov we were at 13.5k.

Ventilator bed wise. Right now ( 4th Nov was last update) we are at 1032, 4th Nov last year we were at 1193.

How many have recovered and are released daily?

Hospital patients in England and Scotland - easily the majority of the UK - have fallen quite a bit over the past week. Full numbers on the data thread. Including the week to week fall in England admissions which are looking hopeful but is easy to predct given the big fall in cases.

 

[Healdplace]

Monday to Friday last week England patients fell every day from 7535 to 7072 and on Friday were down week to week for the first time in some weeks.

Scotland had a similar path falling Mon to Friday from 931 to 841~

It is 803 today v 902 last Monday.

Just to help the posts above. Not going to post data here as requested. Unless it is obviously helpful to the discussion as here.

Ventilator bed wise. Right now ( 4th Nov was last update) we are at 1032, 4th Nov last year we were at 1193.

It was 1024 on Friday. Latest data as England only post these numbers weekdays. Also was falling in England and Scotland last week. Scotland ventilators fell another 3 today. And down 14 on last Monday. So the trend seems to be continuing.

Apologies if that was my fault but once the questions were asked and answered I thought it was OK to post a few numbers to clarify the question. But understood and I will stop doing so altogether in here from now on. But posters popping in on here are bound to ask data questions from time to time as it is hard to entirely unravel them from most questions about Covid.
