We are testing that many people that we are bound to regularly see people dying who have tested positive, but their death had nothing to do with covid. As we ease restrictions it is now absolutely vital that we review how we report the numbers to avoid people panicking.

MP_MFC Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 An increase of 40 in hospital isn’t great tbh. Considering this will be from around the time of the England game finally filtering though, if we start to see jumps of 40+ each day then things will get paused again IMO ‘protect the nhs’ etc. Not ideal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant Doonhamer Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 We really don't know how many people who are in hospital with covid. We are testing that many people that we are bound to regularly see people dying who have tested positive, but their death had nothing to do with covid. As we ease restrictions it is now absolutely vital that we review how we report the numbers to avoid people panicking.Agree with that. I think it is a concern that hospital numbers are going up again but not a reason to stop easing restrictions. I have a friend who is a physician in Ninewells Hospital. They are seeing numbers with acute Covid infection beginning to rise again and are concerned by that but also reassured that the numbers are far from where they were in January when very few people were vaccinated. Her view is that they will continue to increase for a period yet but not get to a critical level as they did during previous “waves”. The vaccines have changed the game and continue to do so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we peaked at just over 2000 cases a day in the middle of Jan that led to around 2000 people in hospital at the end of Jan of which about 160 were in ICU 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've never had positive test numbers this high before. The most we had in January was (I think) 2,649 in a day. That was January 7th. On January 23rd we peaked at 2,026 in hospital. So we're at 60% more cases, and (currently) 84% fewer hospitalisations. Though, if we assume today is the peak of cases (which it isn't) we won't see peak hospitalisations for a couple of weeks.

Scosha Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Is there a breakdown in where these cases are coming from? Uuuuge numbers but unlikely to drastically impact hospital figures. With cases being as high as they have been over the past month we must surely be getting to a point where there's a decent level of immunity from infection amongst the 18-30s regardless of vaccine status. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lockdown forever to appease the lovejoys? Adults have been vaccinated, the vulnerable and elderly double dosed. There is nothing more that can be done apart from impose more restrictions which is masking (no pun intended) the problem. Time to live our lives. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently 22nd-28th June. Figures are always tweaked to keep them accurate. What i know is the numbers for 29th & 30th June when they replace 22nd & 23rd June are much higher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
