the number of deaths yesterday was 50 so there is obviously a catch up from christmas

AnnieK 30-12-2021 08:06 PM

Surely everyone was expecting a big jump at some point.....we've had 18 deaths, then 50 so there was obviously a lag somewhere. I'm surprised its not much higher

Crimson Dynamo 30-12-2021 08:11 PM

Remember 80 % go into hospital for non covid reasons

But test pos while there

Figures from 3 weeks ago

Vents are stable..being in hospital with covid doesn’t mean that is what you went in with

Hopefully that’s the case and it drops down dramatically tomorrow although the weekend ‘catch-up’ would have come on Tuesday or Wednesday (yesterday) wouldn’t it ?

The ventilation figures are a week or so behind hospitalisations aren’t they though ..

Get sick - hospitalised - need ventilation - recover/ death .

Hopefully it is just a catch up glitch... better not think of the alternative as yet

So you keep saying without saying anything

Stop trying to be the big man and post something of note

I've posted all I have to say. It's not "doomsday", it's not "we're all going to die", it's not the end of the world ... but the numbers are not good, the NHS situation is not good, the numbers are going to continue to increase for a while and it's quite funny watching the same few people declaring "Covid is over" and then desperately scrabbling around trying to turn **** into gold with each day's news. Keeps my spirits up.

Well I’m kinda reluctant to wish everybody a happy new year this time given what’s happened the last two times I did :(

Not one member has said covid is over

Stop with the DM exaggeration to justify your bleak, lack of data position

One member has literally said exactly that, several more have implied it.

Watching that bloke on YouTube ticking bits of paper doesn’t constitute “having the data” either by the way but it’s ok, I get that people are tired and scared and want to believe the hypothesis that this is a much milder strain and will herald the end of the worse strains.

Which is certainly very possible but we’re nowhere even vaguely close to being able to declare that with any degree of triumph.

In truth none of us have “the data” because it’s too early to have “the data”. You criticise me for being honest about not having that data… whilst lapping up any (too early) interpretation of the data that is available that slants towards the positive.

It’s a position of fear. I get why people do it but it has zero practical utility, and jumping the gun with half-baked beliefs comes with several potential risks. :shrug:

The NHS has been in a bad situation for years sadly, I know that I'm repeating myself by saying this, but I honestly don't understand why extra funding isn't being put into the NHS during the Pandemic? Apparently we have enough money to build new Shopping Centers and Museum's about The Beatles, but apparently they can't fund the NHS properly?:conf:

But in fairness it is a good sign that the variant is more mild, the main problem at this point is thanks to our wonderful Government as usual with their hatred towards the NHS for some bizarre reason.

We are 2 years into a pandemic and you are trying to play that card?

Are you for real
But you scorn real life data

Let's see your workings

So
far all we have seen is

I know someone who works in the NHS

Tbf TS knowing someone at the NHS does validate his opinion more than most of us on the topic because they must be relaying what's going on inside the NHS to him.
