Latest data on COVID-19 admissions and deaths in English hospitals.

With admissions above trend, the 7-Day Moving Average for hospital admissions is rising again nationally.

As ever, the regional picture (below) is key to understanding the national picture. 1/4 Image
Based on recent hospital admissions we estimate that R went back above 1.0 for England as a whole, during the second half of November.

We again emphasise that this is a composite of different regions with different trends in infections. 2/4 Image
The average number of COVID-19 deaths in English hospitals is still falling, having peaked at around 300 deaths a day.

We expect this will continue follow admissions, which means further falls in the short term, but increased admissions may be replicated in the deaths too. 3/4 Image
Regionally we are seeing substantial percentage increases in the East and SE, and more modest but still worrying increases in London and the Midlands. The North and SW remain relatively flat although recent falls have now tailed off. 4/4 Image

Latest data on COVID-19 admissions and deaths in English hospitals.

The 7-Day Moving Average for hospital admissions is rising rapidly again nationally. Doubling time is around a month.

As ever, the regional picture (below) is key to understanding the national picture. 1/4
Based on recent hospital admissions we estimate that R was above 1.1 for England as a whole during late November.

As ever, we would emphasise that this is a composite of different regions with different trends in infections. 2/4
The average number of COVID-19 deaths in English hospitals also now appears to be rising again.

We adjust the data to allow for reporting delays (based on the recent pattern) which allows us to identify the change in trend earlier than other techniques. 3/4

Latest data on COVID-19 admissions and deaths in English hospitals.

The average number of COVID-19 deaths in English hospitals has been fairly flat for a few days at around 280 death per days.

The last few days currently look lower, even allowing for typical reporting delays, but this seems too early to be a genuine fall. 3/4 Image

The Sat update on England admissions and deaths, starting with a continued upswing in admissions. The 7 day MA is up 18% on the week, a week ago it was just 9%. This appears to be a national trend, and is broadly consistent with the infection trend recently reported by REACT. 1/4
Consequently our estimate of R continues to rise, and is now approaching 1.2, after falling close to 1.0 a week ago. Was the dip last week due to half term, or maybe the recent increase is a result of last minute activity in anticipation of the second lockdown? 2/4
The regional picture for admissions confirms an upswing everywhere in the last few days, even the NW which had been falling at around 10% per week. The four southerly regions all saw their highest 2nd wave day yet reported today, so this isn't just an issue for the north. 3/4
