National Track and Trace system being scaled back and supplemented by local authority staff knocking on the door when people can't be contacted by phone or text.

About time.

People think they're being cold called to be sold stuff they don't want or scammed of their account details, so don't answer. Two tries by phone then send the local council round - eventually in hasmat suits.

Should do the job. Finally it will become a world beating system

Rocksalt Cafe Bar and The Moortop Pub and Kitchen, in Heaton Moor, both closed their doors on Sunday. This may be the case for the sharp increase in Stockport. Hopefully both places were taking details for track and trace.

Apparently thats just one guy who went in both, whist waiting for his test results. Then tested positive. But there may be more cases when people are tested.

Thanks. May well be the trigger in both Stockport and Tameside. If so hope that spike in those twp places yesterday resulted from tracking it.

But why not publicise this like Niciola Sturgeon does?

As Boris seemingly is not interested maybe should have a televised GM briefing every day to point these out. Then all the Mickey Mouses in Offerton or Reddish can call up and say they were there but they might have the wrong name recorded if trying to track them.

I see not from the post above. But the point is valid even so.

Hospital data updated and it IS bad news.

England had fallen from 565 to 545 yesterday.

But today rose to 647.

102 admissions is the highest rise in a day in England since 22 July when 130 were added - though the next day they fell by 193 - so it was a one daything.

We will have to hope that happens here too.

I will look to see where they came from but I fear we can guess.

More bad news ICU ventilator beds rose by 4 in England today - up from 56 to 60.

Biggest rise since - oddly - 23 July - day after the one noted in the above post.

Though again the next day the number fell by an unusually big number - 9.

All 4 increases in the ventilator beds were in the North West today.

And 24 of the new patients were added in the North West too - The number had fallen to just 123 yesterday after a continuous fall daily since (guess the dates!)

But is today up to 147.

Yorks has risen by 4, East of England by 5. South East by 11 today.

But the MIdlands has gone from 77 on Saturday to 142 today.

London fell by one.

I am finding it a big struggle to post on here tonight. Maybe it was yesterday's updates So I am going to leave it at that.

Have a good evening all.
