Some decidedly worrying stats from the comprehensive weekly Scottish figures. Compared to the the five year average there was 643 excess deaths in the 7 days up to Wednesday but only 282 were due to tested or suspected Covid-19.

Hancock needs to get on the airways immediately to apologise for his crass insensitive comments...the anger out there seems palpable ..Any Answers on R4 just now..several callers talking in tears about family members working in the community dealing with patients leaving hospital but having no, repeat no PPE.

Also, this may have already been asked..Apols if it has...I dip in and out of these threads....where the hell is Priti Patel? As a holder of one of the key offices of state, surely she should have a higher profile...unless of course she is ill..in which case, that is entirely understandable.

I would have thought true figures, if there is any such thing, must exceed 1000

Spain doing very well but we don't know about care home deaths which is why the French numbers look worse


But all of their lockdowns were proper lockdowns


Ours is pretty pathetic.


Just got back from Tesco and there is not much social distancing going on! I'm sure they let in many more than they should have


My elderly neighbour's son and daughter-in -law, along with the grandchildren have just arrived and they are having a BBQ!

UK deaths were 917. Even higher than the 903 reported earlier.


Positive tests continue to remain high.

Yet, nothing about our crisis and Sky leads with Boris playing sudoku

917 deaths announced today down slightly from 980 yesterday with the obvious issue of Good Friday and less admin staff working. 



 


The deaths announced today are likely to be over a period of at least 3 weeks if recent trends are anything to go by.

Re: admin, just hope that with most people being locked down in their spare time that more people may have chosen to go to work and it may be being treated like a normal Friday. Guess we'll see what the next days bring.

Another poor performance from the JFF model.



Projected: 4259 confirmed cases


Actual: 5234 confirmed cases


Its quite worrying we are seeing this, I really hope this is just two bad days and we will see a large drop tommorow. If the model is wrong then it would imply that we are no longer seeing an approximately linear decline in R0. In other words the lockdown is not effective enough to bring R0 down to 1. 


The consequences of this are very concerning.
