Another rise in infections?

It's not listed whether they are serious NHS presentees or people wanting diagnosis for work reasons. If it's similar to the rest of the country, the percentage of new infections is significantly lower than it was a month ago when Teesside were getting 25% increases, albeit of a smaller number. Also, about half of all positives are now NHS workers according to a report today, and that's spurrred a study of repeated testing of 130 NHS staff to try and understand more about means of transmission.
 
But if it's still rising it's still rising regardless of whom or where though isn't it?
Sensing another 3 week extension on Thursday with NO relaxation of any measures.

It will still be rising when we finally get let out for good behaviour! Almost certainly that won't be next week. We'll get blackmailed into a take-up of the NHS app in a few weeks time and if enough people do that, things may get relaxed in three more weeks.
 
So what's the point in the special measures now then? Extra capacity has been built, doctors and nurses aren't overran as much as was predicted (see TikTok if you don't believe me) and cases are still going up so the deaths will go back up isn't that what they told us? Whatever the cases do deaths will follow?

I'm actually more worried about what the deal is going to be on Thursday. Like I said, he won't announce another 3 weeks he will drop his **** and get Raab to announce it instead. If they say you still can't go see family then people are just going to ignore that and go do it anyways. Add people flooding back into tourist beauty spots etc.

They're detecting more cases now, because they've finally expanded the testing system. That doesn't necessarily mean that the actual number of infections is rising. If you look at the number of hospital reported infections (the most seriously ill), the 7-day average for that number has fallen every day for the past two weeks (and is almost half the number it was at the peak).
 
No further deaths announced by South Tees NHS Trust, total remaining at 189.

Two further deaths announced by North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Trust, taking total to 81.

South Tees NHS Trust are 5th highest (same as yesterday) in terms of number of deaths in the North East & Yorkshire region (out of 25 NHS Trusts) and the 38th highest (same as yesterday) in the country (out of 164 NHS Trusts in England).

North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Trust are 18th (from joint 18th yesterday) in terms of number of deaths in the North East & Yorkshire region and the joint 105th (from joint 106th yesterday) in the country.

NB - This is now the fourth weekend running that South Tees NHS Trust has reported no deaths. Whilst numbers are falling, there are clearly administrative reasons for this.
 
Some stats for Middlesbrough:
So far, 582 people in Middlesbrough have tested positive for Covid-19. Of those, 368 had been admitted to the local James Cook university hospital by the end of last week, according to Mark Adams, Middlesbrough’s director of public health. As of last Thursday, 139 local people had died from coronavirus, including 100 in hospital, 36 in care homes, one at home and one in a hospice.

Lot of pages for this thread now so not sure if I missed it being said but I never realised that a death following a pillar 2 +ve test is not counted in the DHSC death figures

I hadn't realised that! The statement on those who had Covid-19 but not tested not being counted is odd. I guess that means it's on the death certificate but won't be counted without a test being carried out. No wonder this method comes up with a much lower number than excess deaths.
 
Am I missing something?

Reported that deaths in hospitals have risen by 331 today, but only 54 happened in the last 24 hours, 121 the day before that and only 28 the day before that one. Then the rest of the total spread out throughout April, start of May and the earliest new death been 13th of March!

So to me that looks like more a case of the media massaging the figures than the government, Joe public sees that figure of 331 and thinks **** thats a lot that have died from/with covid-19 in the last 24 hours.

What day actually had the most amount of hospital deaths?
