The 9am figures not disclosed yet?

So, reports saying that the error was as a result of using an Excel spreadsheet as a database. Each case per column rather than a row, which runs out at around ~16k.

How much money has been put into this? 😒

That is absolutely ridiculous... Imagine the meeting 'we will just pop it all on a CSV file no worries.' 🤦🏻‍♂️

Whilst I would agree that there doesn't seem to be much evidence of a positive impact as yet, on your broader point it would seem very odd if the areas in local lockdown weren't the ones with the highest case rates.

The north west has been under local lockdown measures for a while now and Manchester still has the highest cases per 100,000 in the country.

Are the lockdowns actually doing anything to combat the virus? Doesn't appear so.

I've said this since April (and the events of this week continue to show the problem), until we get a comprehensive and fully functioning test, trace and isolate system in place we will be fighting a losing battle against this virus.

Obviously significantly up on last week (although last weeks figure was missing data), but good to see a big day on day drop. It does seem to have ripped through the student population, pretty much every student area on the cases map has huge numbers. With Newcastle stating 1k of their students (4%ish) as well as at least 1300 at Northumbria, I'm wondering once all the students have been back a month or so, will numbers tail off? From all I've seen they aren't social distancing in the slightest, where most other demographics are and hopefully won't be as hard hit.

So what do you suggest a free for all. Nothing wrong with the idea of local lockdown but the are not stringent enough.
 
Highest number of positive tests (7-day average) as a proportion of all tests processed (7-day average) since 12th May.
Highest 7-day average for hospital admissions since 4th June (probably since slightly before then, as the most recent data available does not include Scotland).
Highest number of people on ventilation since 9th June.
Highest 7-day average for new deaths within 28 days of a positive test since 1st July.
First instance of four consecutive days with 70 or more new deaths announced since 26th June.

Something isn't working as it should is it? The evidence is all there for people to see. Stringent enough? Should be start welding up people's front doors like they did in Wuhan? Or how about posting armed police officers outside high rise flats like they did in Australia?

Little nugget, if the current number of infections continues for the rest of 2020 that's 1.4 million people with a positive test result.
 
The trend for the above metrics is that for the positive test rate and hospital data, for every additional week we are moving approximately two weeks back up the curve of the first wave. For the deaths data, for every additional week we are moving one week back up the curve.
