1 Regional breakdown of cases by specimen date. Reported date is total junk in my opinion. North West, the backlogs seem not to be as extensive today which is good. Has North West hit it's peak? Possibly when I look at the future data. Key day tomorrow to see where 20th goes
2/ East Midlands, up down up down up down. In a sense that is not bad and it is quite low levels so maybe at it's peak
3/ East of England very low numbers over the past 7 days. 7 day average increasing but not in a sharp way.
4/ London slight rise in the 7 day average over the past few days but the number are relatively low
5/ North East - probably the most worrying one in terms of trends. The 7 day average has gone from 198 to 364 in just over a week. Next few days will be very important but I would expect them to rise further.
6/ South East, not much to see really. Low numbers so 7 day average has increased but the numbers being so low will go up and down.
7/ South West there has been a rise over the past couple of weeks but the numbers are very low compared to other regions and do not see how this area can have the same restrictions in place as other parts of the country.
8/ West Midlands I have the same worries as the North East with this region maybe a bit less so but next couple of days will be reveal which way this goes.
9/ Yorkshire & the Humber - three days of lower positive tests. If this continues in the coming days the 7 day average will also start dropping. Just need to wait and see.
