Like you, I have wondered why it is that the SE figures have dropped massively and rapidly from being some of the very worst (over 1000) to now some of the best whilst the rest of the country drops fairly slowly by comparison. Not saying there’s anything conspiratorial in it but it does seem odd. Perhaps one of the stats guys can explain it.....?

Not a stats answer, but looks like we have a possible reason for the trend in Middlesbrough.

What’s the context to the data?

Up to 40% of cases in the 'first wave' may have been picked up in hospitals.
Cemented by the fact government repeatedly refused freedom of information requests.

Sets alarm bells ringing off.
 
And perhaps the lack of PPE helped spread the infection in hospitals if staff didn't use once and discard, as they are supposed to do.

So that 'patients in hospital with covid statistic' is a misnomer.

It's not a misnomer, the figure is still true, the people were in hospital, and had Covid, and this is effectively supported by the deaths, excess deaths and staff accounts etc.

No it's a misnomer you don't understand the definition of the word. You're understanding of all things is poor as shown in many other threads. You're free to believe you're correct

The problem was there wasn't enough PPE, if fact on some wards there effectively wasn't any PPE of the level needed, this is widely known and my friends have confirmed the same.

So the options were, wear the same PPE and still give care, or don't have any PPE, get covid, pass covid on, get sick, and there be less care.

To be honest, I don't know where the stats have come from, and don't know how this has been checked or proven, seeing as we didn't have enough testing capacity then either.

misnomer
a wrong or inaccurate name or designation.
a wrong or inaccurate use of a name or term.

'patients in hospital with covid statistic' = patients in hospital with covid = the number reported for 'patients in hospital with covid'

I think you might mean what made them form part of that statistic (which would be completely different thing), but it's not like you to be deceptive.....is it

My point was, the governments lack of prep possibly caused the reuse of ppe, and directly causing deaths.
