And for Rushcliffe it is not Friday morning. Its Thursday morning at 00:01 (29th of October for anyone who is confused. A lot of people seem to be interpreting Thursday at 1 minute past midnight as Friday. But its not, its Thursday morning, 1 minute into the day. But there seems to be genuine confusion because some places, like the Nottingham Post, do say Friday.
I don't understand though. Even by their own numbers, everything is coming quite steeply down now its gone through the universities and there are just handfuls of "cases" in outlying districts. They're doing what happened in April... putting in tighter restrictions once the horse has already bolted.

That is Nottinghamshire councils latest report. Pillar 1 and 2 cases are steeply dropping. Pillar 2 cases are almost exclusively tied to the university students with the median age being just 20. Going by the districts you can see its clustered round the University area. Thats before you get on to the whole Pillar 2 testing and false positives thing, there are bound to be some.
Pillar 1 testing median age is 63 years old. Pillar 1 is what they do in the hospitals, so basically all the young people are catching it, but only the old are ending up at the hospital. I don't know why they use median over average. Looking at their population breakdowns the vast majority of Pillar 1's are in the 80+ category and the vast majority of pillar 2 is in the under 30 category. Almost no pillar 2 for the oldies.
I also absolutely hate how they have presented the cases all the way back to march. It makes now look much worse than it is because they have not presented the data in the context of the number of tests being performed. But for context... we were performing almost zero testing in March and about 0.5 tests per 1000 people in April. Now we're doing nearly 4 tests per 1000 people.
They also title each slide as Weekly, yet the data shown is cumulative since 21st of Feb.
Only 6 deaths in the Nottinghamshire area in during this month and they are deaths with Covid, not of covid.

They're saying the hospitals are seeing an uptick in patients, So maybe in a week or so, we see more deaths of the old either from or with covid (we will never find out) but surely that is now going to happen regardless of locking down because the cases have already shot up and shot down again.

Interesting. Thanks for this. I knew the university testing was responsible in some way but didn’t realise it had this much impact. Thankfully they’ve all shagged each other now and spread it so it will be dropping very quickly amongst them now. Whether that will mean restrictions dropped or not though who knows. https://www.rushcliffe.gov.uk/environmentandwaste/...
