The 9am figures not disclosed yet?

Today's headline analysis:

• 530 new cases reported in 24-hour period, down from yesterday's 650
• 7-day average for new cases increases by 4.3% to 624 per day, following 3.3% increase yesterday (and 4th increase in the past 5 days)
• 7-day average for new cases is 5.7% higher than one week ago (from 8.8% lower yesterday) and 30.2% lower than two weeks ago (from 34.6% lower yesterday and 51.0% lower 7 days ago)
• 11 new deaths in all settings reported in 24-hour period, down from 21 yesterday
• 7-day average for new deaths in all settings decreases by 0.8% to 85 per day, following 0.2% decrease yesterday
• 7-day average for new deaths in all settings is 10.3% lower than one week ago (from 10.7% lower yesterday) and 27.5% lower than two weeks ago (from 26.0% lower yesterday and 27.3% lower 7 days ago)
 
As of 5pm on 12 July, of those tested positive for coronavirus in the UK, 44,830 have died across all settings.

Deaths announced in all settings was 11.

530 positive tests with 88 Pillar 1.
Are these 530 new positives or are some retests of people who have ready tested positive?
 
The 7-day average for new infections has now risen for each of the past 3 days. The last time that happened was right at the peak for infections on 20th April.

The average back then was 5,161 new infections per day, whereas today that number is 624, which is a significant difference but still...

NHS numbers for triage calls for 999 and 111 calls hasn't risen in line though which suggests that more asymptomatic and mild cases are been picked up by increased testing.

I did wonder about the next few days data, seems cases are going up but it’s under control. Any data on hospital admissions

I've just been looking at that actually.

Last published date for the UK is 1st July, as Scotland only reports admissions once a week. However, the data for England goes up to 11th July and does seem to still be falling.

That said, I'm a bit mistrustful of the admissions data for recent days, as it seems to be revised considerably from one day to the next.

We are doomed.

Of all deaths registered in week 27 of the year, 560 involved covid-19 either as direct cause or mentioned on the death certificate. This accounts for 5.4% of deaths for that week.
 
See this is what really concerns me and has been raised several times..
Clearly many deaths are being attributed without positive tests, well over 65%.

Where are the enquiries into this? At what point do we change the method of notification to need post mortem etc..

Perhaps at the point where we introduce a 'test' to confirm all the other causes of death, rather than accepting the clinical judgement of doctors?

Well no.. that's why we have post mortems.. you ignore the main point of what I'm saying, covid has special treatment when it comes to death certification.
 
It's funny you mention Scotland which has a higher per million death rate than England (though I have to say I hate these 'league table' comparisons)...

Not true. Up to 13 July: 2490 deaths in Scotland popn 5.5m = 453/million; 40245 deaths in England popn 56m - 719 /million

Same treatment as the flu. The final report will have provisos. For instance, I think the last major flu year had 18000 excess deaths that were put as flu, but the first 6 weeks of the year had a long period of sub-zero temperatures, so it said that was probably an additional cause of some deaths. It also concluded that the flu vaccine was only 30% effective that year. Very few people who die of severe bronchial symptoms / pneumonia go through post mortems, but that is also a doctor's perogative on death certificates.

No it isn't the same treatment as flu FFS man .. In covid death certification, no test is required, no gp has had to have seen the patient within 28 days and no post mortem occurs.

It explains why we are seeing really low death numbers 'with test' but high numbers without and YET our excess deaths are lower than the 5 year average again.

Jesus can you not accept a single piece of valid information.
