London is averaging 40 hospital admissions per day from the community. Out of 9.3 million.

On 23rd March, London had 505 admissions.

Admissions are barely rising. If this is tier 2 worthy then we are finished.

As of 1st October in London, Covid patients made up:

49 out of 744 ventilation beds occupied (6.5%).
275 out of 17,451 normal beds occupied (1.5%).

Given the low daily admission rate this won't have changed significantly.
"Cases" most likely flattening off - unless there's a major backdating of the data.

Speechless.

It's now 142 days since London last saw daily Covid deaths reach double figures. That was on 26th May.

Remember there are 9.3 million people in London.

Tell me that there isn't some sort of immunity.

Does anyone have any idea what happened back in 2006/07?

Bars in Los Angeles opened about 10 days ago and nearly 700k people flocked to bars. These bars have now been closed as cases rocket and hospital beds fill up. Well that's they want you to think.

Lets look at the data: All hospital beds Los Angeles - No pick up at all.

1/n
2/n

Beds used for Covid has seen a slight pickup. Not sure the definition of suspected Covid buut it seems confirmed Covid bed use has increased. But there's a few issues. First it looks like this trend started either at the same time or before bars reopened.
3/n

Daily Tests have increased from between 60-80k per day just before reopening to now more than 100k. If you test more, you find more cases (many asymptomatic and harmless). This also means more people at hospitals can be classified as confirmed Covid.
