COVID-19 — Coronavirus

Guess what? The gov uk website has packed in again! But this time they are blaming 'an ongoing issue with Microsoft Azure'.


Might not have a world class test and trace technology in the UK but we must have a world beating excuses.

there is actually an Azure outage in the south of the UK

Anyhow 9 all settings deaths - quite a jump from 1 given this is Sunday data and out of hospital deaths rarely get recorded at weekend. Last Monday the 4 UK hospital deaths went down to 3 in all settings.

And cases are down significantly to 2621 - but if you recall what Nicola Sturgeon said that might 'really' be double this for all we know.

OK, fair enough, if true. But was there all the other times it has been off line for up to 24 hours over the past month or so?

Does look like this is a different issue to the past ones as the website is accessible just unable to update beyond yesterday.

My daughter got tested friday morning. Still not had her result back! Really poor!

because we are ahead of it when patients end up in hospitals instead of firefighting a new disease we didn't know how to treat ,we have some treatments that help stop people needing ventilation ,it is not weaker,we are better,key is now to not overwhelm the nhs with it when they get overwhelmed in a bad flu season as itis,that is what boris should be saying,it is clear,factual and easy to understand

Some scientists think it is getting weaker Karen.

This is kind of reassuring when its put there like this. Add in all the beach stuff, protests etc too. Lots of things that we thought would cause big spikes so far haven't, even with the lags in dates. Fingers crossed it stays this way given the kids have gone back to school. It has in other countries so let's hope for the best here too.

reduce available tests, lower cases reported, continue to report success. No 2nd wave. On paper.

well if that was the case and the virus wasnt getting weaker then hospital cases and deaths would shoot up both of which would have to be reported. No im sorry but the testing fiasco is just that a big cock up and not part of some dastardly plan.

And instead of addressing it, their only plan is to encourage you to grass up your neighbours. Despicable doesn’t even begin to describe this charlatan government.

Data up and even with the big drop to what may be artificially low numbers things are still grim up north.

Regional scoreboard:

London 218 - down substantially from 311 to the levels it had two or three weeks ago.

Midlands 349 - down a little from 397.

Yorkshire 356 - down a little from 413.

And North West well down from the record 906 to 734 - though still the third highest total yet just 7 less than 2 days ago.
