41,270 new #covid19uk positive tests reported today (13-Feb).

England overall is down a huge 35% on previous Sunday and day-1 LFD positives are also down 32%.

All 315 of England's local authorities are now down week-on-week and all age groups are also falling nationally.

Chart to show England positive tests (as of 13-Feb) by breakdown of first infection events and possible reinfection events.

Possible reinfections were added to the data from 31-Jan and the rolling average vs. total tests is currently about 10%.

Animated chart to show LFD-only positives being either converted into PCR confirmed positives or removed due to negattive confirmation, over the last 14 days of reports.

Pivot table of daily changes to LFD Only and LFD Confirmed by PCR figures to see if we can identify where LFDs are now being removed due to negative follow-up PCRs.

Longer term view. 41,270 new #covid19uk positive tests reported today (13-Feb). This brings the rolling average by specimen date (allowing 4 days for lag) to 68,536, equivalent to around 12-Dec (i.e. 56 days ago), a reduction of 23226 (25%) in the last week.

Closer look at the latest 45 days, with today's added numbers highlighted in yellow. Individual nations and animated England charts further down the thread.

Separate charts for England (32316) Scotland (5301) Wales (1495) and Northern Ireland (2158). Note the different scales. Also on certain days the specimen-date data for Scotland/Wales/NI doesn't get updated so the yellow bars may be mising or include multiple day's numbers.

Animated chart to show how the #covid19uk positive tests by specimen date have been contributed to by reports over the last 7 days. Note this just includes England numbers as other nations don't always publish their specimen date numbers every day.
