2 March. The latest ONS weekly death figures improved, 4079 people dead from #Covid19UK

We must keep #lockdown3 and #TestTraceIsolate the virus to eliminate it in the UK. Image
W/e 19 February, 2182 people above the 5-year average deaths number.
The % figures show the increase/decrease over the 'normal' death rate
Deaths are 18.8% above the 'normal' number
This is a 10% decrease from the previous week Image
w/e 19 February. The above-average deaths figure does not mean that they were the only #Covid19UK deaths.

4079 deaths were due to the #Covid19UK virus though some others may be still due to #COVID19 but excluded as they died more than 28 days after testing positive.
In the week ending 19 February 2021, there were 2182 more deaths in England and Wales compared with an average year
The deaths from #Covid19UK decreased to 4079
We need this number to reduce to zero before we can say the virus is beaten.

Full #lockdownUK now #StayHomeSaveLives
2 March 2021
The first vaccinations are taking place in the UK. This is good news, but the rollout will take many months while #Covid19UK deaths are still over 4000 per week,
we need to stay in #lockdown

We need to eliminate the virus not learn to live with it
#COVIDzero
Total excess deaths due to #Covid19UK up to 19 February is 111,466

That is all of Chelmsford
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelmsford
The entire population of that town; dead

To beat #Covid19UK we need a functioning, locally-based
NHS #TestTraceIsolate system not a failing for-profit #Serc9
2 March 2021
In w/e 19 February with 18.8% excess deaths we are past the peak of the second wave. This time let's
extend #lockdown to get #COVIDzero

Compared to the first wave, the peak has been lower but has been extended due to dithering over lockdown.
2 March 2021

The #Lockdown3 has worked but needs extending as it has not been as strict as needed.

Vaccines have been rolled out quickly but it will still be months before we are all protected

We need a working #TestTraceIsolate system
2 March 2021
Support #lockdown:
Financial aid. #UniversalBasicIncome now.
Remote schooling. #FreeBroadband for all, prioritise installation for those with school-age children
#FreeLaptops for all children that are without a computer
2nd jabs of the vaccine

Had my first dose of vaccine, the astra zen one. I have gone to bed to rest. Actually feel totally fine, but it is a great excuse to get waited on, I have placed my order for my tea (aka dinner, supper etc).
Not even a sore arm, but shush do not tell @HotPot32052191 😸🤓
Day2 of the vaccine. In the night had believed that the heating had been left on, it was so hot. Surprised when I felt the radiator and found it cold. Seems I have had a bit of a temperature. My arm feels sore around the injection site. Took a co-codamol and back to bed...
It is still day2 but have still not heard back from @BillGates about how to get the microchip working... anyone else having this problem? 🤣
