ENGLAND HOSPITAL DEATHS TODAY

177 with 40 North West - NO easy comparison but 2 weeks ago was 101 with 15 NW

Hard to know how much is impacted by the distortion created by catch up still over the long holidays. May be next week before we through this impact and can really tell.

But I think there is evidence that deaths are now clearly rising as cases are reaching older patients. Not yet at worrying numbers and certainly nothing like V last January. But noticeable uptick over past 2 weeks.

JAN 1 has 99 deaths at 5 days and the the three days following it are ALL in the 80s already - even 4 Jan after just 2 days on 81. This is the highest day 2 total in a very long time.

4 March was the last time it was higher.

If we are now rising at that stage of the then falling Winter wave we will not peak for another 6 weeks. Let us hope this time Omicron burns through faster.

You may not have the answer to this but what is the age profile of people dying now when compared to last year? Has it changed at all?

Just been looking at my town, Warrington.

5000 cases last week. In Summer last year it got as low as single figures!
 
ENGLAND REGIONAL CASES

Numbers back up today but not to their heights of two days ago,


REGION TODAY - UP/DOWN - V SEVEN DAYS AGO



NORTH WEST 25, 971 - UP from 19,756 V 23,952

North West jumps back up 6K which is the correction I supected we would see today as mentioned yesterday. But fairly flat V last week rather like London has been for more than a week after its big climb up - two weeks ago it was 14,759


LONDON 21,854 - DOWN from 22,558 V 24,320 - Still up and down a bit but not falling much and only slowly - two weeks ago it was 26,307

SOUTH EAST 19,946 - DOWN from 20,806 V 21,058 - slowly falling - two weeks ago was 16,618


WEST MIDLANDS 18,305 - UP from 18,006 V 15,967 - two weeks ago was 9921

YORKSHIRE 15,699 - UP from 15,127 V 12,553 - two weeks ago was 5947

If you look at the England hospital deaths in here every afternoon I post that days total by the age bands given.

It has not changed a huge amount in terms of the split - tiny numbers with the under 40s, modest numbers 40 - 59 and much higher over 60.

That patterm is the impact of Covid on co morbidities obviously more likely to exist the older you are.

So not likely to change.

Hwever, the size of the numbers have changed so the large older age numbers have fallen the most as the vaccines have had most impact here.

But in reality it is just less of the same pattern and likely to always be that way.
 
GREATER MANCHESTER CASES TODAY



TOTAL 9180

UP by 2150 from 7030 yesterday


NW Total 25,971

UP by 6215 from 19, 756 yesterday


GM 35.3% of the NW total today. Down from 35.6% yesterday - both well down from over 40% last week.

The epicentre of the NW outbreak which for much of Christmas centred on GM has started to shift as North Lancashire, East Lancashire. Merseyside, the Fylde coast and Cheshire have all seen rises.

Week to week GM has actually fallen by 413 whilst the NW has risen by 2019 Showing that the last two days where GM had surprising falls may be real and is a redistribution of cases over a now wider area.

The GM fall week to week is from 40% to 35.3% of the total.

MIght change again but that is how it looks right now.





MANCHESTER 1541 - UP 312 on day & DOWN 542 on week - Pop Score 277 (POP 24,803)

WIGAN 1178 - UP 244 on day & DOWN 96 on week - Pop Score 356 Will join the 25 K club tomorrow. (POP 24,939)

SALFORD 950 - UP 226 on day & DOWN 62 on week - Pop Score 362 and takes it into the 26 K club - first in GM and after just 48 hours in the 25 K club! (POP 26,017) HighestPop Score across the pandemic

ROCHDALE 877 - UP 394 on day & UP 86 on week. Pop Score 393 * (POP 24,807) * Highest pop score in GM today

OLDHAM 853 - UP 380 on day & UP 122 on week - Pop Score 360. (POP 24,367)

STOCKPORT 813 - DOWN 128 on day & 277 on week - Pop Score 276* to enter the 24K club. The only borough to fall both on the day and week to week gaining more points back on Bolton. And amazingly 276 is the LOWEST Pop Score today by 1 from Manchester. First time in Stockport in a while. (POP 24,178)

BOLTON 811 - UP 253 on day & UP 47 on week - Pop Score 282 to enter the 23 K club as the only occupant (POP 23,201) * Lowest Pop Score in GM across the pandemic - But lost 6 to Stockport today to go back to 'just' 977 ahead!

TAMESIDE 803 - UP 155 on day & DOWN 31 on week. Pop Score 353 (POP 24,758)

TRAFFORD 755 - UP 143 on day & EXACTLY THE SAME AS LAST WEEK will enter the 25K club tomorrow - Pop Score 317 (POP 24,940)

BURY 599 UP 161 on day & UP 11 on week. Pop Score 314 (POP 24,625)
 
WALES DATA

21 deaths - was 11 last week - more signs of these rising

7915 cases - was 10,393 - but also more signs of a slowing of cases

29% positivity - was 36% last week - which shows it is not just fewer tests but a real fall

702 patients - was 531 last week

40 ventilated - was 33 last week - Need to see how this develops as the hospital numbers are both rising
 
ENGLAND HOSPITAL DEATHS

Headline:- Unfortunately it now seems clear deaths ARE rising quite signifcantly and I think Christmas lag cannot easily now be considered why. The last few days have seen a VERY sigificant increase. And deaths have escalted to noticeably higher levels and are now at the point they last were day to day on 4 March. I was hoping this was holiday registration lag. But the longer it goes on the less likely that seems.

161 with 32 from the NW - Last week 118 with 21 NW and week before 106 with 22 NW

By Region:-

East 28, London 36, Midlands 28, NE & Yorkshire 14, North West 32, South East 13, South West 10


Most by trust:

Mid & South Essex 9


NW Trusts:

8 in Manchester, 4 in Liverpool, 3 each in Chester, St Helens & Southport, 2 each in Mid Cheshire & Salford AND 1 each in Blackpool, East Cheshire, East Lancashire, Morecambe, Stockport & the Wirral. There was also 1 in Christie's Manchester.

By Age:

20 - 39 (2),40 - 59 (15), 60 - 79 (60), 80 PLUS (84)


THE MAIN REASON FOR CONCERN ARE THE VERY HIGH NUMBERS IN THE PAST WEEK WHICH ARE CREEPING WELL ABOVE ANY WEEK FOR MONTHS

Jan 5 - two days ago -is already at 92 deaths - the highest in over 10 months at that point.

Jan 4 - three days ago - is at 108 - even worse and the highest at that point since 25 February 2021 - the tail end of last winters huge wave.

There had been no 100 or over deaths below the 5th day since early November 2021 up until 28 December and there are now 3 already and with 5 Jan as shown above so hgh after 1 day that will probably become the highest yet.

These are mostly deaths probably from the lower numbers up to 2 weeks ago and before Omicron dominated and the older ages started catching that over Christmas.

SO WE DO NOT KNOW IF THESE ARE MAINLY DELTA DEATHS IN OLDER PEOPLE EXACERBATED BY WINTER AND OMICRON's RECENT DOMINANCE AND LOWER THREAT WILL LESSEN RATHER THAM INCREASE THEM. BUT WE WILL SOON FIND OUT

WE NEED TO WATCH THE DEATH NUMBERS VERY CLOSELY OVER THE NEXT WEEK OR TWO
 
SCOTLAND DATA

15 deaths - was 13 last week

14,486 cases - was 11,962 last week

21.7% positivity - was 22.6% last week - THIS IS GOOD NEWS - MANY MORE TESTS WERE DONE TODAY HENCE THE FALL WITH HIGHER CASES

1323 patients - was 1267 yesterday & 859 last week - More than a 50% rise in patients in 7 days is one way of looking at it.

Another is a net 464 added from over 108,000 cases in those 7 days. About 0.4% hospitalised and 99.6% not.

48 ventilated - was 43 yesterday & 36 last week

However, this may be starting to show a rise in these numbers if more older patients are catching Omicron now. Hopefully not.

The scottish care home data would be very significant given what is happening here in Northern Ireland (sww below). As these are where the most vulnerable are likely to be.

HERE IS THE LATEST ON THIS FROM SCOTLAND
  • as at 5 January 2022, 251 (24%) adult care homes had a current case of suspected COVID-19
  • in the week 27 December 2021 to 2 January 2022 there were 612 new confirmed positive COVID‑19 cases among care home residents and 1,098 among care home staff
  • as of 2 January 2022, there have been 13,017 confirmed cases of COVID-19 amongst residents and 10,168 amongst staff of care homes for all ages since 9 March 2020

    NOTE THE KEY HERE - 10% of ALL STAFF CASES WITH COVID ACRSS THE ENTIRE PANDEMIC IN CARE HOMES HAVE OCCURRED IN THE PAST WEEK!!! AND 5% OF ALL CARE HOME RESIDENTS TOO.

 
NORTHERN IRELAND DATA

0 deaths - was 1 last week

6444 cases - was 7215 last week

47,723 weekly cases - was 49,270 yesterday & 35,107 last week - slowing a bit here

190 CARE HOME OUTBREAKS - WAS 179 YESTERDAY & 112 LAST WEEK - STILL GOING UP WORRYINGLY GIVEN THE SCOTLAND DATA ABOVE TOO

402 patients - was 404 yesterday & 391 last week

26 ventilated - was 24 yesterday & 25 last week

But this is so far holding up very well considering.

So all in all things look to be doing OK but we need to watch how those care home residents react to Omicron.
 
HERE IS THE LATEST TREE GRAPH OF THE PAST WEEK CASES IN NORTHERN IRELAND.

YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE IMPACT OF THE CARE HOME OUTBREAK RISES AS THE OVER 80s ARE STARTING TO GROW

AT !.1% IT WAS ABOUT A THIRD OF THAT LEVEL JUST BEFORE CHRISTMAS. STILL HAPPILY LOW BUT IN A CARE HOME OMICRON WILL SPREAD LIKE FURY I FEAR

AND THE OVER 60s - WHICH WERE AT UNDER 5% BEFORE OMICRON PRE CHRISTMAS ARE NOW 9%.

THIS IS STILL WELL BELOW THE LEVEL IT WAS AT IN THE JANUARY 2021 WAVE. PRE VACC(NES. UNDER HALF. BUT IT HAS RISEN MARKEDLY IN JUST THE COUPLE OF WEEKS HOLIDAY PERIOD

UK CASES & DEATHS TODAY

178,250 cases - down both day to day (by 1506) and week to week (by 11,596)

149,405 in England - also down both on day (by 2901) and week (by 10,871)

229 deaths up from 203 last week

193 England up from 178 last week

1,811,239 pillar 1 & 2 tests - down over 200K on yesterday but UP 316 K on last week.
 
Probably post most data tomorrow because of the match but befre KO Zoe is interesting tday and matches the real cases in which NW is actually third again today behind South East and London though all from NW 21,015 via London 21,558 to SE 22,637 pretty flat and close together).

For the first time in a while today Zoe predicted cases FALLS from 208,472 to 203,925 after several days of the rise slowing. This coincides with the first day over the same period when the UK and England reported cases actually fall both on the day and week to week.

Unlikely these are a coincdence.

Moreover NW seemingly having fallen and flattened quickly like London did on Zoe today remains top BUT also falls for the first time here too after several days of the rise slowing down as my posts reported- Today on 4117 / 4565 - from yesterday's 4133 / 4594.

Small acorns but a start. And all these measures aligning is good to see on the day when the Enland hospital numbers patients and ventilated showed positie signs of heading the right way too.

May yet go pear shaped but Zoe and the real cases have been in strng alignment for a while so this looks hopeful.

As the graph below shows the ongoing symptomatic cases - whilst still rising (they will be a week or so behnd daily numbers) ARE now also clearly slowing. Today they are only up by 37 K to 2,672,293. This number was 52K and 59 K in the past two days - the gap clearly lowering.

When all the signs align it is promising.
 
ENGLAND REGIONAL CASES

Numbers back up today but not to their heights of two days ago,


REGION TODAY - UP/DOWN - V SEVEN DAYS AGO



SOUTH EAST 22,637 - UP from 19,946 V 25,780 - two weeks ago was 17,638

HOSPITAL PATIENTS UP IN WEEK 337 TO 1606 - UP 40 TODAY


LONDON 21,558 - DOWN from 21.854 V 22,727 - two weeks ago was 26,342 - very slow falls but patients in hospital here have been dropping now for a day or two so these are translating into that area happily

HOSPITAL PATIENTS UP IN WEEK 353 TO 3989 - DOWN 64 TODAY




NORTH WEST 21,015 - DOWN from 25,971 V 22,977 - two weeks ago was 16,529

North West down day to day and week to week as the southern regions did that quickly but have since stayed more or less at the same lower level since. And like London are up 5000 or so on two weeks ago.Was the main driver of hospital rises but whilst still going up the numbers have slowed.

HOSPITAL PATIENTS UP IN WEEK 957 TO 2899 - UP 20 TODAY (The increase in patients here has been decreasing all week and was 419 on Monday)


WEST MIDLANDS 16,384 - DOWN from 18,305 V 15,250 - two weeks ago was 6799 - The midlands are rising the most at the moment much as NW did last week.Also had the most patients in hospital yesterday supporting the link with this part of the data. But given the above is likely not to keep climbing and flatten off soon.

HOSPITAL PATIENTS (NB THIS IS FOR WEST & EAST MIDLANDS COMBINED AS ONLY THE GOV UK FOR CASES SPLITS THIS REGION IN TWO) UP IN WEEK 821 TO 2943 - 61 TODAY



YORKSHIRE 15,711 - UP from 15,699 V 18,697 - two weeks ago was 6664 - Very similar track to the Midlands and rising in hospital patients and admissions too - but like the others not escalating fast

HOSPITAL PATIENTS (NB THIS IS FOR YORKSHIRE & NORTH EAST COMBINED AS ONLY THE GOV UK FOR CASES SPLITS THIS REGION IN TWO) UP IN WEEK 775 TO 2419 - JUST 2 TODAY


EAST 14,739 - UP from 14,245 V 17,117 - two weeks ago was 11,001

HOSPITAL PATIENTS UP IN WEEK 357 TO 1440 - UP 31 TODAY

HOSPITAL PATIENTS - SEE WEST MIDLANDS ABOVE (EAST & WEST ARE ONE NHS REGION)


SOUTH WEST 11,054 - DOWN from 12, 784 V 12,276 - two weeks ago was 6888

HOSPITAL PATIENTS UP IN WEEK 168 TO 867 - UP 15 TODAY


NORTH EAST 10,162 - UP from 9997 V 6991 - two weeks ago was 2942

HOSPITAL PATIENTS - SEE YORKSHIRE ABOVE (NE AND YORKSHIRE ARE ONE NHS REGION)
 
GREATER MANCHESTER CASES FRIDAY



TOTAL 8922

DOWN by 258 from 9180 yesterday


NW Total 21,015

DOWN by 4956 from 25,971 yesterday


GM 42.4% of the NW total today. Well up from 35% yesterday and day before - though close to the expected average and where GM was last week.




MANCHESTER 1461 - DOWN 80 on day & DOWN 75 on week - Pop Score 263* to enter the 25K club
(POP 25,066) * Lowest Pop Score today which looks odd but these are all within 100 of one another today as the GM boroughs have squeezed together in past 2 weeks.

WIGAN 1205 - UP 27 on day & UP 20 on week - Pop Score 364* to also enter the 25 K club.
(POP 25,303) * Highest Pop Score Today


STOCKPORT 953 - UP 140 on day & DOWN 203 on week - Pop Score 324. (POP 24,502)

BOLTON 943 - UP 132 on day & 173 on week - Pop Score 327 still only occupant of 23K club but lost another 3 points to Stockport (POP 23,528) Lowest Pop Score in GM across the pandemic - But lost 3 to Stockport today to be 'just' 974 ahead not exactly in danger of losing the lead!


SALFORD 893 - DOWN 57 on day & DOWN 108 on week - Pop Score 340 (POP 26,357) Highest Pop Score across the pandemic - not under threat as 1054 ahead of Wigan in second


OLDHAM 753 - DOWN 100 on day & UP 106 on week - Pop Score 317. Closed the gap by 7 on Stockport notice. A product of Oldham imprtoving and Stockport having been very high for weeks though doing better at present like all of GM (POP 24,684)


TAMESIDE 748 - DOWN 55 on day & DOWN 13 on week. Pop Score 330 to enter the 25K club (POP 25,088)


ROCHDALE 744 - DOWN 133 on day & UP 89 on week. Pop Score 332 to enter the 25K club (POP 25,139) * Highest pop score in GM today


TRAFFORD 637 - DOWN 118 on day & 154 on week - BEST PERFORMER TODAY - but Pop Score of 269 means yet another to enter the 25K club today - FIVE at once! (POP 25,209)

BURY 585 - DOWN 14 on day & UP 57 on week. Pop Score 307 - only a good day here stopped it being six into the 25K club at once! (POP 24,932)

something which is in no way linked to the difficulty in getting tested?
Click to expand...
This was discussed both here and the other thread over past two days and I often post the test numbers here as they indicate positivity numbers. Tests take 3 or 4 days to pass down the chain to the actual reported number which though ascribed to the day before often is across those few days - though they have speeded up the process a bit given the issue of delay with a fast moving variant like Omicron.

It is why the Pop Scores I post here are different from the ones the media use. They allow for the test lag and so are giving you numbers as they were 5 days ago. In these days I think that is not helpful as we need to know what the score is now not last week.

These very often show trends the press take days to catch on to.

Nobody is yet reporting the NW and GM falling. But it is. So they will. But by then it might even be going up again. Though hopefully not.
 
THIS VIDEO IS FASCINATING AS IT RUNS THROUGH THE WHOLE PANDEMIC BY DATE SHOWING WHERE CASES RISE AND FALL AS THE WAVES UNFOLD

THE DIFFERENT DATES SHOW YOU THE IMPACT BEFORE AND AFTER OMICRON ARRIVED PRE CHRISTMAS IN THE LAST TWO OR THREE SECONDS OF THE SECOND VISUAL WHICH COVERS THE MOST RECENT DATA

Record numbers of tests this week with over two million some days.

So no, that isn't it.
Click to expand...

A number of people I know have given up testing because of the lack of availability. My son and his partner both are ending their quarantine periods both failed a pcr but have not been able to get an LFT. They haven't reported anything to the govt so unless their employers are doing so theres two unrecorded positives
