GM scoreboard:

Bolton 102 - up from 76 and still on a par with the century numbers it had a week ago. 1497 in month (new local record - see below). 644 past week. 178 over 2 days (was 206). Pop score up 36 in one day to 1284.

Bury 69 - up from 36. Doubling its record score in successive days and now running 10 times the numbers it was two weeks ago (when it had 7, 6, 5 on successive days). Very worrying increase here. 526 in month (new record). 243 past week (new record). 105 over 2 days (was 71) - by miles a new record. Pop score up a staggering 35 in one day to 1058.

Manchester 144 - up from 102 and a new all time GM record in a day - and three succcessive century numbers which even Bolton has not (yet) achieved. The big rise in Manchester has become another notable concern (amongst many) at a time when restrictions are supposed to be helping. 1552 in month (yet another GM record set here). 627 past week (Manchester record but Bolton pips it here for the county). 246 over 2 days (was 217) yet another GM record. Pop score up by record 26 in one day to 991. All but certain to be the sixth of the ten boroughs to go into the 1000 club tomorrow. And to show how bad this outbreak is Manchester was lower than Stockport on this measure in the Summer.

Oldham 59 - up from 38 to - you guessed it - new record. 807 in month (new record). 315 past week (new record). 97 over 2 days (was 83). Pop score up 25 to 1482. Will be in 1500 club tomorrow.

Rochdale 42 - up from 29 (but not a record at least). 598 in month (record). 235 past week (record). 71 over 2 days (was 77). Pop score up 19 to 1226.

Salford 64 - up from 53 (new record). Six times where it was couple of weeks back. 724 in month (new record). 307 past week (new record). Pop score up reord 25 to 934.

Stockport 40 - up from 32 (new record). Another big rise up from in the teens in just a week. Like other places in GM in trouble after looking OK very recently. 374 in month (record). 193 past week. (3 weeks ago it had 28 in a week, 2 weeks ago 66, last week 141 - this shows very clearly how numbers are skyrocketing not just here but GM wide). 72 over 2 days (was 57) (another record). Pop score up by record for here of 13 to 786. It took well over a month to pass through the 600s and nearly three months to pass through the 500s. It has taken just 11 days to get here in the 700s and if it has a worse day tomorrow will be in the 800s more than six times faster than it passed through the 500s in the spring/summer. Still top of this rating in GM as nobody else is doing much of a job of the chase.

Tameside 50 - up from 22 to yet another record. 652 in month (record). 253 past week (record). 72 over 2 days (was 63). Pop score up record 22 to 1087. Flying through the 1000s and likely into the 1100 club tomorrow.

Trafford 30 - (record) and big rise from 18 but still by miles the best in GM. 373 in month. By one snatches this top in GM title from Stockport! But barring big changes will be holding on to it for some time I suspect. 131 past week. Not even close as leader in GM in this category. If Stockport and Wigan are still out of restrictions Trafford has to be. Surely. Pop score up a record 12 points to 823 so made little headway catching Stockport for its last remaining GM title.

Wigan 49 - up from 39 (though not quite a record still worringly high like Stockport). This has held GM titles too but has lost them with these slips. You have to wonder if Trafford can avoid not going the same way as theae two given its record numbers today. 463 in month (record). 239 past week (record). Like Stockport but even more starkly - Wigan 3 weeks ago had 40 in a week, then 2 weeks ago 86 in a week, and last week 147 in a week. Pop score up 15 to 830.

Figures lag a week at least, with those who have it, not yet showing symptoms. Who knows where we are at? It certainly suits this shower of shit in charge that the truth is hidden. My prediction; no more than two can have a Christmas dinner together, when that time comes
 
Latest dose of bad hospital news:

Ventilator patients in England up from 108 to 115 in last 24 hours.

Seven days ago the number was 63 and it has rose day by day as follows:- 70, 74, 88, 101, 107, 108 to 115.

That is a near doubling in a week just in England.

You have to be one lazy/and/or useless journalist to not spot that trend.
 
Ventilators in N Ireland up from 0 to 3 in the same week and Wales from 7 to 11. The Scottish system has changed in those 7 days. So you cannot easily compare like to like until next week.

Either way the data is going one way only.
 
The NW by the way now has 34 of those 120 + ventilator patients. Up 2 from yesterday and 18 in the past week.
 
All but one health area in England added patients in the last 24 hours. There are 988 in hospital in England v 953 yesterday.

The last 7 days numbers have risen from 600 to 988 - more than a 50% escalation.

Happily the NW only added 3 to 312 today.

London just added 1 to 146.

Midlands up 19 to 200 and Yorkshire up 7 to 201.
 
Yeah.
Right.
Oh see their stock price shot up.
What a coincidence.

just take a short position on the stock and then appear on YouTube saying your one of the volunteers for the Moderna trial - Bit of makeup to look like death and then close your position out once the clip is circulated around Wall Street - my cut of the profits as always is 10%
 
Hoorah ITV news has finally discovered the story on hospitals and ventilator patients going up but claimed to only have data from two days ago.

The above is todays data (though in reality numbers will be as of last night) so not sure why they are not using that.
 
The last time we had more patients in hospital in England than today was 23 July by the way. But it was going down daily then and fell steadily to just 430 on 28 August.

So since the bank holiday it stopped falling and has just gone up and up and up and more than doubled in just 3 weeks. During which GM has been on restrictions but has been a main contributer to the areas adding the most patients and ventilator beds.
 
Was always going to happen. I’m surprised and glad that we were given the opportunity to have a fair crack at a normal summer with the restrictions being lifted.

Probably time to start thinking about rolling back a few more of the liberties we were gifted in summer and get ready for the pandemonium of winter.

Shut the pubs, restaurants, churches, gyms etc before it gets out of hand. Or see how well this ‘circuit breaker’ two week lockdown works out. Just do it sooner rather than later.
