COVID Data Thread

I'm testing negative now and must have got over it..............Deffo caught Vs Leeds or in a pub near the ground.

We are going to just have to live with this shit........
 
Just to remind it will be England cases only. The other nations are reporting nothing again today.

N Ireland and Wales will not post anything tomorrow either.

And though the others will be back to normal on Tuesday Scotland will have the raw numbers but no detail from tomorrow and no hospital numbers even on Tuesday as they have an extra bank holiday for New Year that fell at weekend this year so they get an extra day off to catch up.

So Wednesday will be the first time all data will be reported as pre the two week holidays. Though the majority of the numbers (as in two biggest contributers) will be back tomorrow for cases but hospital numbers will remain England only tomorrow. Until Tuesday when added in N Ireland and Wales and Wednesday in Scotland.

Not exactly a united approach!
Newspaper headlines on Thursday will obviously make no mention of any of that, it’ll just be ‘reported’ as a massive increase in numbers compared to the day before!
 
ZOE NUMBERS TODAY

WE DO STILL HAVE THESE DAILY AND THEY SHOW THE UPWARD TRACK OF THE NORTH WEST AND THE STALL AND FALL OF THE SOUTHERN REGIONS, WHICH HOPEFULLY MEAN NW WILL BE ABOUT 10 DAYS BEHIND DOING THE SAME THING.

THOUGH IT IS NOW ALMOST CERTAIN NW WILL OVERTAKE LONDON TOMORROW ON ZOE AND BECOME THE HIGHEST REGION IN THE UK. AS IT HAS BEEN CATCHING UP ON DOING DAY BY DAY FOR A WEEK NOW.



Predicted daily cases on Zoe go up to 205,235 - new highest ever.

This is up 2890 on yesterday AFTER

Yesterday was a rise of 4014 from 198, 331 to 202,345 - giving some hope of a slowdown.



Ongoing cases yesterday were 2,251,993 - UP to 2,326,622 -BY 74, 629 on the day.

Today cases are up to 2,395,292 - a rise of 68.670 - a third day where the numbers have shown a clear slowdown of the daily rise.

The falls in the southern regions are outweighng the now slower rises in the northern ones.

I think we are maybe a week to ten days from a peak of this wave.

And when the southern regions are joined by the NW falling the numbers will shift. Yorkshire and the MIdlands are behind the NW and climbing too. But the sheer combined numbers of cases in London, the south and north west are not going to be matched by the restof the regions still then rising.

The good thing about Omicron is it is SO infectious and letting it rip over the holidays maybe was a calculated gamble to let it peak quickly in the areas where it would dominate rapidly.
 
ZOE APP DATA

THE 12 UK REGIONS
(V two days ago):-


LONDON still top - JUST - but falling daily and have been doing so now for over a week from 6080 at the peak down now by around 30% of that peak on 4173 / 4542 V 4387 / 4773


NORTH WEST - in second but rising daily as predictably as London is falling and near going top quite possibly tomorrow BUT also has slowed that increase notably in past few days - or would have taken top spot already - today UP on 3879 / 4351 V 3745 / 4223


The other 10 regions are:-

YORKSHIRE climbing fast now into third up more than NW on 2934 / 3408 V 2739 / 3214

NORTHERN IRELAND up to fourth and UP the most of all today on 2407 / 3911 V 2157 / 3632

EAST down two places to fifth and barely moved in 2 days rising on 2917 / 3256 V 2908 / 3256

EAST MIDLAND sixth and climbing but slowly now on 2720 / 3177 V 2635 / 3098

WEST MIDLANDS like its neighbour climbing in seventh even faster - up on 2615 / 3063 V 2455 / 2902

NORTH EAST also fast climbing in eighth (as in the real cases - tripled since Christmas) - UP more than anyone in England here today on 2481 / 3190 V 2223 / 2913

WALES stays ninth now but rising steadily each day - up on 2496 / 3015 V 2339 / 2859

SOUTH EAST now tenth - like London falling but more slowly - on 2555 / 2786 V 2599 / 2838

SOUTH WEST stays eleventh place and gone from worst to best in England over past 3 weeks - still only inching up by small numbers on 1952 / 2236 V 1932 / 2221

AND BEST IN UK STILL

SCOTLAND - in twelth- going up only very modestly now on 1828 / 2216 V 1810 / 2205
 
ZOE NUMBERS - NORTH WEST


Pretty much everywhere is now rising in the region.

Merseyside is climbing fast - Liverpool now on 39,738 - highest in months - as is St Helens quickly topping 40 K on 41,187 and Wirral on 27,350

West Lancashire (between Merseyside & Wigan) is also still climbing on 31,030

Warrington rising back over 23K too.


Further south

Cheshire West climbing daily on 25,699 & Cheshire East likewise on 26,597


AS FOR GREATER MANCHESTER HERE ARE THE NUMBERS IN ORDER.

NOW THE HIGHEST TOTAL EVER SEEN AND ALL TEN GOING UPWARD - SOME BY QUITE A BIT


Best (lowest - 'low' being used relatively as you see!) to Worst:-


OLDHAM 26,542 - the highest ever 'lowest' score on Zoe in GM's ten boroughs

ROCHDALE 26,768 - up over 3000 on the day.

TRAFFORD 28,247 - like most places edging up 1000 or so a day

BURY 30,108 - only 3 boroughs under 30K tomorrow is the most ever 30K and above already.

STOCKPORT 30,837 - up 2000 today and first time oer 30K in many weeks.

WIGAN 35,336 - been rising fast over past 2 weeks and also up 2000 today. Hence the highest ever GM daily Pop Score yesterday.

BOLTON 36,036 - despite being well clear as lowest POP score in GM still now VERY high by its level and had over 1000 cases yesterday for the first time ever in the real data.

TAMESIDE 42,505 - has tripled since Christmas and multiple GM boroughs over 40K has never happened up to this week

SALFORD 42,649 - up 4K - the most - today and a score that would normally guarantee top slot. Not today.

MANCHESTER 43,378 - only up 1000 or so daily now but over 40K here is unprecedented


NO WONDER FROM THESE NUMBERS GM HAD ITS FIRST EVER DAILY CASES TOTAL IN FIVE FIGURES (11,374 CASES) YESTERDAY
 
ENGLAND AND WALES DATA ONLY

73 deaths

59 in England and 14 in Wales


No comparison with last Sunday as being Boxing Day nothing was published.

However, England hospital only deaths that are attributed tp 26 Dec as date of death currently total 75 a week later.



137, 583 cases

123, 547 in England and 14,036 in Wales - new record there (was 5335 in Wales last week)


Was 162,572 England only yesterday & 119,923 last week

So a surprisingly modest weekly rise - though Sunday and holiday data so not going to overthink the fall but England has really dropped as there were those 14K cases from Wales today and NONE yesterday. JUst England then.

This also is matching the Zoe numbers posted above which show some of the regional increases were flattening today.

London definitely falling by the looks of it, so the rest should be falling in the next two or three weeks.

If I've read it right Sky news website suggesting a correction was made in today's case figures for an overstatement of cases on Dec 31 and 1 Jan due to these two days including positive lateral flow tests where a subsequent pcr test proved negative.
 

HERE IS WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT IT. NO DETAIL ON HOW MANY IT CHANGES BUT IT WILL HAVE HAD AN IMPACT OF SOME SORT​

Issue with cases by test type​

Because of a processing issue, positive lateral flow tests followed by a negative PCR test in England were not removed on 31 Dec 2021 or 1 January 2022.
Today's figures include removals for 3 days.


The falls everywhere today suggest we are talkng quite a lot as many GM boroughs are down by hundreds.
 
London definitely falling by the looks of it, so the rest should be falling in the next two or three weeks.
As I noted above in the Zoe report it has been falling there for a week now and NW has slowed its rise too.

I suggested in those posts above that the Zoe data infers we might peak in about a week to 10 days if I am reading it right.

Yorkshire and Midlands and North East are rising still so it is not all about London and North West but if NW follows the trend in London on peaking that these two in a week or so will then be going down not up and their sheer size will have a big say on the England numbers even if smaller regions are yet to peak.

There has to have been a big deduction of cases across the board as every region is well down and in Greater Manchester every borough down hundreds. Am guessing the huge numbers yesterday in GM were vastly exaggerated.As they looked improbable even in context.

So this will have seriously reset the clock. But just for the day.

The least impacted in GM was Wigan who still had 1228 cases today - over 200 more than Manchester.

Most other boroughs were way down to what looks an unlikely low number. Stockport for instance halved from 1163 yesterday to 581 today. So big was that drop that they actually gained Pop Score points back off Bolton even though they were down by over 500 on yesterday too.

So it seems likely we are talking about a readjustment in GM of around 2000 in total maybe. But that is educated guesswork only and no doubt tomorrows numbers will tell us more as they will presumably be more normal and adjust well up.

Bottom line. Wise not to judge much from todays numbers as they will likely be very unrepresentative of what we will see in the next few days.

ENGLAND REGIONAL CASES

Everywhere down pretty similarly (bar Yorkshire - te region going up the most recently) and a lot suggests the reason is the data reductions spread quite evenly.

Tomorrow will be a better guide to where everyone is really going.


REGION TODAY - UP/DOWN - V SEVEN DAYS AGO


LONDON 19,951 - DOWN from 27, 608 V 22,348


NORTH WEST 19,375 - DOWN from 27,328 V 14,272



SOUTH EAST 16,033 - DOWN from 23,108 V 18,419

YORKSHIRE 14,298 - DOWN from 14,373 V 6578 - the only region with barely a fall

EAST 12,556 - DOWN from 16,168 V 11,581

WEST MIDLANDS 11,388 - DOWN from 16,221 V 8968

EAST MIDLANDS 9573 12,994 - DOWN from 12,994 V 8033

SOUTH WEST 9337 - DOWN from 12, 367 V 8288

NORTH EAST 7474 - DOWN from 10,935 V 3500
 
GREATER MANCHESTER CASES TODAY

TOTAL 6184 - Half yesterday - but obviously not truly reflective as it has a big MINUS number in it

Down from 11,374 yesterday by 5190

NW Total 19,735 - down from yesterday by 7953

GM 31.3% NW total today. WAY down from 41.6% yesterday.

SO MOST OF THE CASE READJUSTMENTS IN THE REGION TODAY WERE IN GREATER MANCHESTER IT SEEMS

THESE DAY TO DAY AND WEEK TO WEEK COMPARISONS NEED TO BE JUDGED ON THAT BASIS - CAUTIOUSLY


WIGAN 1228- DOWN 280 on day & UP 444 on week - Pop Score 372 * (POP 23,559)) Highest daily Pop score rise today

MANCHESTER 1012 - DOWN 871 on day & DOWN 44 on week - Pop Score 182 (POP 23,734)

SALFORD 609 - DOWN 457 on day & UP 33 on week - Pop Score 231 (POP 24,625) Highest pop score in GM across the pandemic - leading Manchester by 891. GMs first but soon far from only entrant of the 24K club and over half way to the 25K club already.

TRAFFORD 591 - DOWN 292 on day & UP 164 on week - Pop Score 249 (POP 23,733) - After being best in GM across the pandemic a week or two before Christ,as it is now one behind Manchester - who are only behond leader Salford! Such have the GM Pop scores squeezed together lately as vaccinations have levelled the playing field a lot it seems.

STOCKPORT 581 - DOWN 582 on day & DOWN 58 on week - Pop Score 197 (POP 22,906) Such a good day here with a huge drop - unreal as it may be if mainly down to the removed false positives - that after losing 100 a day Pop score points to Bolton for a week it actually GAINED 3 back today!

BOLTON 575 - DOWN 519 on day & UP 54 on week - Pop Score 200 to POP 21,917) Lowest Pop Score in GM across the pandemic. Leads Stockport now by 'only' 989. Will enter the 22 K club tomorrow on the same day Stockport enters the 23K club.

TAMESIDE 497 - DOWN 465 on day & UP 46 on week. Pop Score 219 (POP 23,391)

ROCHDALE 394 - DOWN 583 on day & UP 65 on week. Pop Score 176 (POP 23,533)

OLDHAM 369 - DOWN 792 on day & UP 40 on week - Pop Score 156* to enter the 23K club - tomorrow 8 of the 10 GM boroughs will be in 23K briefly. (POP 23,097) * Lowest pop score rise in GM today

BURY 328 - DOWN 349 on day & DOWN 63 on week. Pop Score 172 (POP 23,272)
 
Numbers over extended bank holiday weekends mean nothing, lets see where the numbers are later this week/next weekend, then we might have a better picture.

Also its hard to report a positive test when you cannot get hold of a testing kit. Reductions in numbers were predicted over the holidays were predicted coz of the lack of availability of tests - everybody from the producers to the distributors were off over the break. Its not until the end of the month that they expect testing to be up to the required level.

 
All of the above about the actual numbers due to testing issues is true. But the relative comparisons are likely to be valid regardless.

As in we can clearly see - and have seen and reported - the data showing London stalling and falling for a week or so now. North West then rising to go level and about to take over as top region. And the other regions starting to move up too one by one. Yorkshire and Midlands especially so in recent days which the media are yet to pick up on but will when the 5 day old data they use catches up.

The daily raw numbers rarely matter much. But the trends do reflect where we are headed.

The media are reporting these things about Lodon today but the numbers have been showing us going there across the last few days.

So they give us a heads up over what will eventually be the headlines. Not the actual numbers. But the direction of travel. I make a bit of a game of it by saying so and so is ahead of somewhere or other. Just to make it less boring to collate the numbers and with long posts for the few who bother to read them. But also as the direction of track is more valid than the actual total.

SCOTLAND DATA

ONLY SCOTLAND AND ENGLAND REPORTING AND NO DEATH DATA HERE EITHER TODAY

THERE ARE SO MANY TESTS BEING PROCESSED THEY SAY THESE MAY EVEN BE AN UNDER ESTIMATE!

TODAY THOUGH IS A NEW SINGLE DAY RECORD IN SCOTLAND

20, 217 cases - was 10, 562 last week & 6734 two weeks ago today

34.9% positivity - highest ever here - was 15.2% two weeks ago

1031 patients - UP from 859 last data 48 hours ago - was 555 last Monday - so DOUBLED in 7 days

Though that 478 extra patients is from at least 80,000 cases in the same 7 days.

So around one in 200 cases becoming hospitalised patients.

38 ventilated - was 37 last week - so as you see despite all those cases and near 500 more in hospital ventilated patients have barely moved.

THIS SUPPORTS WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT OMICRON - MANY CATCH IT - FEWER GOING INTO HOSPITAL FROM IT AND EVEN FEWER NEEDING VENTILATION SO LIKELY TO DIE FROM IT.
