Here are some additional case figures!

Reported case rates are still mostly falling throughout the UK, and across the planet as a whole. Although of course, a large part of that is due to a reduction in testing. ImageImageImageImage
The hospital figures are falling across the UK too!

Here are some of the hospital admission figures for England. It has been a lot of up and down over 2022/2023, but the rates right now are some of the lowest they've been throughout that period. Image

As of today, Northern Ireland will no longer be releasing any case or death data, so going forward those figures on the page will just be for England / Scotland / Wales.

I believe the hospital data will still be getting released, but only once a week rather than daily.

And weekly death data should still be getting released by NISRA here: nisra.gov.uk/news/weekly-deโ€ฆ
And of course, the ONS Infection survey will still be running, giving an alternative for case figures in Northern Ireland.

The figures there will be more accurate, although not as timely, and not as useful at a local level
