Weekly LFT fraction of +ves, for those areas not affected by small number suppression:
No more low numbers so can see the fractions in all areas now
35% of Central Liverpool's cases were identified by asymptomatic testing last week. Mean of 23% across all areas 2/5
After Liverpool was placed in Tier 2 following the 2nd National Lockdown cases started to edge up. Though, the jump in the week following Christmas towered over this..
However, currently there are small signs cases could be starting to decrease. Still high but we'll see!🤞
3/5
Most recent weekly positivity of both PCR and Lateral flow still rising compared to week prior, but the increase is now showing some signs of this growth slowing.
If we histogram the proportion of daily cases found by asymptomatic lateral flow testing since the initiative begin on 6th November, we get a mean at around 30%.
Last reported date (10th Jan) was 29.7%

Weekly update on the #COVID19 situation in Liverpool: 15th Jan 2021
- Weekly cases possibly peak on 8th Jan at 5,419.
- Both under & over 60's rate starting to fall. 🙂
- BUT, Liverpool hospitals admissions have increased sharply, passing highest levels from 2nd wave 😩
1/19
Total weekly cases were seen to grow >3x that of previous week at end of year but weekly growth has now declined & cases are now falling.
The peak occurred 8th Jan but more importantly cases are still higher than in 2nd wave, so restrictions still necessary. 2/19
Scary rates were seen for both under & over 60 age groups at end of year but both have started to show signs of discontinued growth.
Still, rates in > 60's are very high and unfortunately lots more people will require hospital treatment. 3/19

Weekly update on the #COVID19 situation in Liverpool: 8th Jan 2021

1/18
Total weekly cases increased at a speed never seen during the 2nd wave, growing > 3x that of previous week.
Many reasons for this. Personal opinion; Christmas mixing probably dominating the rise, egged on by already recent increase in prevalence + new variant. 2/18
Scary rates are seen for both under and over 60 age groups. Slightly higher in < 60's but more in sync than seen during the student dominate start of the 2nd wave.
> 60's curve is bad because this group are more at risk of severe disease & hospitalisation 3/18
