Total patient numbers are about a quarter of what they were in late January.

The police officer convicted of the manslaughter of Dalian Atkinson had been previously found by a police disciplinary hearing to have committed gross misconduct but was allowed to remain an officer and given a stun gun, it has been revealed.
PC Benjamin Monk was convicted of the manslaughter of Atkinson last week after firing a stun gun into him for 33 seconds, and then kicking him twice in the head after a clash in August 2016.
On Monday at Birmingham crown court a sentencing hearing was told that Monk had two criminal cautions for drunkenness and theft before he joined the police but that they had not been disclosed when he applied to be an officer.
The prosecutor, Alexandra Healy QC, told the court Monk had applied to join the police in 2001. He was cautioned for theft in 1997 while an employee at a Woolworths store. In 1999, Healy told the court, Monk was cautioned after he was found drunk. Neither was disclosed and Monk became an officer with the West Mercia force.
In 2010 Monk went through another vetting process, Healy told the court, and the criminal cautions were discovered by his bosses. Monk faced a police disciplinary hearing charged with gross misconduct, which can lead to dismissal. He was found guilty of the disciplinary charge, which amounted to “discreditable conduct”, Healy told the court.
Instead of being dismissed Monk was given a final written warning.

A federal court on Monday dismissed the Federal Trade Commission’s antitrust complaint against Facebook, dealing a major setback for the agency’s complaint that could have resulted in Facebook divesting Instagram and WhatsApp.
Shares of Facebook rose nearly 5% on Monday following the complaint’s dismissal, sending the social media company’s market capitalization above $1 trillion for the first time.
“Although the Court does not agree with all of Facebook’s contentions here, it ultimately concurs that the agency’s Complaint is legally insufficient and must therefore be dismissed,” reads the filing from U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. “The FTC has failed to plead enough facts to plausibly establish a necessary element of all of its Section 2 claims -- namely, that Facebook has monopoly power in the market for Personal Social Networking (PSN) Services.”

Apologies for not being clear, I meant the graph over autumn/winter period not just at the moment.
England had a small autumn peak peaking in November followed by a monster Jan peak.
The North had their autumn peak in October followed by a fractionally higher January peak. Very different looking graphs.
Some norther local authorities actually had smaller January peaks than Autumn peaks!
To me it needs more of a veg component - tempted by tomatoes fresh from the tomato plant, and I might add a few slices of fried courgette. And make the toast into olive toast.
I'd eat it as is. A proper strained Greek yoghurt of course (Waitrose No 1 is good). I'd eat both portions and not bother with bread, to keep it low carb.
If I wanted lo-carb I might try a mushroom/kale stir fried base layer, which sounds interesting but works really well.

It's the fault of the BBC.
Possibly.
Murray has gone off court whilst they close the roof, so they've gone over to cover the Heather Watson match on Court No.1 instead. She was winning up until that point, but as soon as they put her on the telly... tie break lost 7-3, one set all.

That's fair enough, up to a point. I'm also going to an event that requires one to provide "proof" of a negative lateral flow test result. The only problem being, it's self-certified and therefore pointless.
All you have to do, of course, is order your box of LFTs, type a declaration of a negative result into the NHS website using the serial number of one of them, and then display the resultant text message on your phone to fulfil the requirement. If you don't want to take the test you don't need to. There'll be no shortage of people who won't bother, and they can't be caught out for it.
Yes but player-for-player France is the better team; it is just they are not playing as a team. I might back them if this changes in the next ten minutes or so.

Hmmm - catchup from all the stuff missed/delayed by COVID?
On topic, isn't it strange that C2DE Remainers are more pro-Boris than C2DE Leavers?
It is - and the answer to why is (I sense) of profound import. We should get working on it. Has he disappointed blue collar Leavers in some way perhaps? Was our Brexit not hard enough for them? This would explain why their Remainer equivalents are relatively more supportive.
It may be just a statistical anomaly. But interesting if confirmed by further research/polls.
Yes - and tbh I'm dubious.
Theory: the C2DE Remainers mostly wanted to Leave as well, but were frightened by predictions of economic catastrophe into backing what Cameron wanted. Catastrophe failed to happen, so now they have repudiated their previous allegiance and back Boris with the zealousness of converts. Or something.
Yes, has legs. I've always said the 'mood' of the country - England - was far more Leave than the technical result of the vote.
It's all down to money and the fear of losing it. If Project Fear (of Being Poor) wasn't as successful as it turned out to be, then both the Leave vote in England and the Yes vote in Scotland would've won by landslides.
Scotland's Parliament only asked to join a Union with England in the first place because of money, it needed a bailout after the failure of the Darien Scheme.
Partly true. The English Parliament played a game of carrot and stick: on the one hand, access to the colonies, debt pooling and a great big sackload of cash; on the other, trade sanctions if you don't do what we want.
AIUI the Scots ruling class liked the deal; the ordinary folk weren't necessarily so enthusiastic.
Quite right. It was the lairds - not the nation - that needed a bailout.

It's never been claimed that the vaccinations provide 100% cover. If anyone thinks they do - and a lot of people do - then it'ds a massive failure of Government messaging. But that is a somewhat different, if indeed very worrying, matter.

Even at 99% protection from getting ill from Covid that’s still a lot of people who can get it.

The vaccinations don't prevent you catching Covid, it will likely always be with us now like flu and the common cold, however the vaccines do minimise your risk of being hospitalised by it or dying from it

His comments are telling too - "very nasty" and a "summer cold". Indicates his immune system isn't up to much generally, he'd have been hospitalised without vaccination.

Now can somebody show me the entry requirements for the Hyde Park rave?

Very sobering and worrying story from Marr concerning the catching of Delta after being double jagged.
Moronic. I know the rates are high around here so I've been more cautious given I'm only single jabbed until August 4th. I've also been selective with who I see, but I didn't expect anything that stupid from the local students.

But rapid recent increases have not yet fed through to hospitalisations - so hospitalisations will go up over next 2 wks.
Also, 20-30% of people infected will likely end up with long covid - with maybe 15% having it severely affect their daily lives
20-30% get Long Covid? Seriously? Where does that figure come from?
More work needed.
All you have to do, of course, is order your box of LFTs, type a declaration of a negative result into the NHS website using the serial number of one of them, and then display the resultant text message on your phone to fulfil the requirement. If you don't want to take the test you don't need to. There'll be no shortage of people who won't bother, and they can't be caught out for it.
2. Her Long Covid claim looks suspiciously like something made up on the spot to frighten people
And remember his age plus previous health conditions, he is more vulnerable.
IrishFrench....Never in doubt.
The vaccinations don't prevent you catching Covid, it will likely always be with us now like flu and the common cold, however the vaccines do minimise your risk of being hospitalised by it or dying from it
If you are concerned staying within your social group and away from hoardes of youngsters in indoor settings is probably sensible for the moment.
Me thinks that with hospital numbers under control they are looking for a new front to keep the restrictions in place through summer and into an autumn lockdown.
