You can't compare the cases in April with the cases today.

We are doing far more testing today than we were doing back in April.

It is possible that the cases in April were higher than today's cases.

Exactly this - we have no true base line with which to compare as people weren't being tested.

The other thing to consider, is that we have more understanding of the virus and are better able to treat it than 6 months ago.

Absolutely correct, our understanding and ability to treat the symptoms is evolving at a rate I've never seen before with any other disease outside of a radical discovery like antibiotics. Unfortunately there is still a long way to go before this is truly preventable/curable disease.

Unfortunately the numbers should be a major cause for concern as the direction is upwards and the rate of increase is escalating rapidly. There's a 2 to 3 weeks lag before new infections become increased hospital admissions and subsequent tragic deaths.

SAGE had pushed for a short circuit break lockdown several weeks ago. That would have stalled the exponential growth, helping to spare health services overload and minimising the lockdown period, compared to doing what we have done. It would have kept the effect on the economy lighter too.

Even in the early days of the virus we knew it would be better as we went into summer.

Coming out of winter into summer is a very different scenario to coming out of summer going into winter.

I think it's a good point. 6 months ago people weren't wearing masks, social distancing etc. Now most infections are from a lower viral load.

Figures the support the continued use of social distancing and using masks

Presumably he returned the swab without ever removing it from the tube and swabbing his nose or throat.

I am a believer in social distancing and masks but the figures don't support anything other than:

-Lots of people with covid weren't being tested in March because the mortality rate was so much higher.

-Treatment has improved so far less deaths. I am sceptical about this swinging thing so much as hospital admissions are still lower than march.

Lower viral load MAY mean less hospital admissions BUT I am quite sure that most transmissions are happening in environments where masks and social distancing are not required. E.g house parties, university etc rather than Tesco...

Of course, there is also the other point that the age of the cases is far lower at the moment than back in March. Care homes are better protected and the elderly (and their relatives) are trying their best to avoid catching the virus. In Scotland, In March, 45% of covid cases were in the 65+ age group. Today, about 12% are in that age group. Of the 2600 deaths in Scotland 90% have been in the 65+ so hardly surprising that deaths are so much lower now compared to cases. I doubt england differs that much.

Here is a question, why would someone do that?

95% of tests are negative but the guy who didn't provide a sample came back positive.

If he did nothing then the results would have been inconclusive and another test would have been requested. A friend of mine had to have a retest done on their kid for the same reason.

Now, if I was a covidiot covid denier then I might just make a youtube video like this. It's a good way to get thousands of viewers and make a bit of cash. But, as I am not, I really wouldn't be wasting my time... Although the cash would come in handy...

Yup,and its not either/or. Many patients dying from Covid also have cancer/heart disease/lung disease etc. The Covid may or may not be contributory to their death. Rmemeber everyone in hospital is being tested regularly for Covid, whatever they are in for, and by definition if they die within 28 days of a positive test, they are counted as a Covid death.

NO

everyday is tested for the virus sars-cov2, covid is a condition completely separate to sars-cov2 just like hiv and AIDS, not everybody with HIV has aids and not everyone with sars-cov2 has covid.

We need proper diagnosis from a health professional of covid at death and even then there's mitigating factors.

This is how you don't do statistics.

400k a day in UK in March? That would be 12.5 million for the month of March. Repeat that for April and that's 25 million. Assuming there would have to have been considerable build up through January and February to get to 400k by March, plus everything from May to now, then on your theory we must be talking 35 million + by now. That can't be right? We'd have achieved herd immunity by now and the virus would be rapidly dying out. I suspect maybe 40k to 60k positive a day in March. Fewer people are dying now as treatment much better and the most vulnerable have very sadly passed already, plus more testing, younger people catching the virus more, older people have become adept at shielding and we are all mostly mask - wearing and sanitising and socially distancing.

"213 people die from smoking related causes every day that's 78,000 a year, I wonder how many of those are from passive smoking "

Some of those could be from passive smoking.

Smoking does not affect just the smoker, it can also affect those in close contact with the smoker.....similar to the way someone with covid can transmit the virus to someone in close contact with them.

Some years ago, you could smoke anywhere at anytime time. But to reduce the number of deaths occurring from passive smoking, the government has now imposed restrictions on smokers to prevent them from smoking in indoor settings like public transport, restaurants, pubs, cinemas, public offices etc.

Just as restrictions are in place to reduce the deaths occurring from passive smoking; restrictions also need to be in place to reduce the deaths occurring from covid transmission.

Glad someone else has pointed this out.

This has been one of the most misquoted WHO statements and there's been a few.

A question that really always needs to be asked or looked at is.. what has been omitted and what has been added.

The agenda drives the information interpretation/omissions.

So many are concerned about the rules, interpretation of rules and then how to get around the rules.

If everyone were to ask themselves when doing something or going somewhere, 'is this essential?' and if it isn't and chose not to do it, we most likely wouldn't be in the situation we're facing now.

"An average of 450 people die of cancer every day in the U.K.

You have a point? Yes 450 people die of cancer every single day on average

This is a thread in the virus section, cancer isn’t a virus. So once again, do you have a point? 180 people die of heart attacks every day in the UK

??

The OP was talking about covid though ......"

He never mentioned Covid

"Today

Cases 26,000

Deaths 191

At the height in April it was

Cases 7,500

Deaths 1200

You can't compare the cases in April with the cases today.

We are doing far more testing today than we were doing back in April.

It is possible that the cases in April were higher than today's cases.

Exactly this - we have no true base line with which to compare as people weren't being tested. "

So should we be very happy with the government then for largely bringing it under control and getting to a point where a lot less people are being admitted to hospital and dying . Isn't it wonderful that a whole new industry has grown up testing people for such a relatively mild disease and protecting us from it's worst consequences Wahey.

A heart attack also isn’t a virus, do you think perhaps you might be posting in the wrong section?

Cancer is not classified as a contagious Illness. Covid is contagious.

You still seem unable to make a point though, why are you posting the average number of deaths per day for various ailments?

They didn't say cancer was, they said there's viruses that are classed as contagious that cause some cancers.

Oh, so you think saying that people die from other things is somehow making a clever point rather than making you look rather foolish?

"....They didn't say cancer was..."

And I didn't say they said so.
