I see that the Stockton, Hartlepool and Middlesbrough areas are 3 of the 5 highest rates of infection now.

For the first time since the beginning of the pandemic I know a lot of people who have had, or have got, Covid.

And most of them seem to have had pretty bad symptoms, albeit not hospitalised.

Similar with me, 5 people I know have tested positive in the last couple of weeks (with non or mild symptoms). In the first two waves I never knew anybody that I associated with have it
 
If you look at the numbers of new cases and deaths by actual date (i.e. not by date reported) there is an interesting contrast:

In the seven days up to and including 8th July (the last date data is available for new cases), the rate of increase in the 7-day average has almost halved when compared with the previous week, from 7.7% per day to 3.9% per day.

For deaths during the same period, however, the pattern is reversed. The rate of increase in the 7-day average for deaths has practically doubled from 2.2% per day to 4.1% per day.

Remember, this is by actual date rather than reported date, so it removes fluctuations caused by adminsistrative issues and should give a more accurate picture of what is actually happening (albeit with a slight time lag).
 
As of 9am on 14 July, 5,233,761 people have tested positive for COVID-19 in the UK.

Positive cases were 42,302 (32,548 on corresponding day last week).

49 deaths were reported today (33 on corresponding day last week).

152,856 deaths with Covid-19 on the death certificate (up to 2 July).

46,037,090 have had a first dose vaccination. 59,073 first dose vaccinations yesterday. 35,155,767 have had a second dose. 158,276 second dose vaccinations today.

Just having the conversation with Mrs J, about tests as I’ve now done 4 that have been negative this week, but still not convinced I don’t have it (got 2nd of the day currently ticking over)

The trend on here seems to be a number of people have had symptoms for days before finally getting a positive on a LFT. Could this be an effect of the vaccine doing its job? The LFT is less sensitive so needs a higher viral load to register, the vaccine lowers the viral load, so does this lead to people getting the virus and symptoms but still at a viral load level that is undetectable by a LFT?

If so this could be a nightmare and part of the reason for the spread? People displaying mild symptoms, testing negative and then going about their business due to classing it as hay fever etc instead?
