#covid19uk - Nations level positive tests thread. Starting with "spaghetti" chart based on today's 19-Oct data. This shows +ve's by specimen date (i.e. when person tested, not when reported) for all upper tier local authorities in England:
Closer view of latest 45 days
And the full range version with the Leicester/Liverpool/Nottingham highlights:
Positive test daily specimen date total by report date chart to see how the reports eventually contribute to the overall daily totals (lightest blue is a Monday).
Breakdown by report day range to see how much each report contributes to a given day's total.
Breakdown of each day's report by what % of its most recent 7 specimen dates are covered by the positives. Helps show possible bottleknecks in reports (which may represent delays in testing). Gaps are days they didn't release the data.
Same as above but with actual counts instead of percentages.

I've been trying to track down the precise source for the "126.8" figure used in the document to recommend the Wales fire-break. I think it's important since they've taken the rare step of publishing the thresholds it was based on, so we can actually monitor it going forwards. 1/
It doesn't explicitly say here what this means other than "cases per 100k". My guess would be weekly cases since it sounds roughly right and that's what they often use. But I couldn't find an exact match in the Wales nation level data. Closest I could find highlighted below:
They do use the word "estimated". Could this mean they've calculated it somehow? Nothing in the supporting documents about this and just says they'll use "Number of confirmed COVID-19 cases" for the transmission circuit-breaker.
#covid19uk - Detailed positive tests thread. Rolling weekly comparison of totals up to 3 days ago. Now colour-coded by Tier. Red is Tier 3, yellow is Tier 2 and blue is Tier 1.
Same as above but with actual counts intead of per 100K population numbers. Both can be useful depending on whether your focus is on "relative numbers" or "understanding spread of daily report numbers".
#covid19uk - Tables thread. Re-ordered now to put the more popular rate sorted table at the top. So this is to 100 England Local Authorities by positives per 100K population in last 7 days, up to 3 days ago. Bright green means lower than previous period.
Dashboard for 19-Oct to explain where the #covid19uk total death increase figure of 80 actually comes from. The PHE dataset merge resulted in a net removal of 4 additional deaths today (hence the -4). This moves the 7 day rolling average up by 4.3 to 121.6.
Updated England date-of-death vs. announcement chart. Note that the numbers drop at the end as data is still being actively reported for those dates.
Simple chart to show which specimen dates have been added to in today's #covid19uk data update. Note that on some days, Northern Ireland data isn't reported so look at the nation charts below in the thread for more detal.
Plus all 4 nations separately. Note the different scales.
And England regions, starting with North West, North East, Yorkshire & Humber and West Midlands. Again, note the different scales.
