Here are some of the detailed vaccination figures too!
A couple of small changes were made to the page too, which I'll mention below!
The first is that the case age trend chart here now shows the total number of cases over the past 7 days, per capita, rather than the average number of daily cases over the past 7 days, per capita.
The trends are still the same, but it just matches the other age chart now!
And then the 20 day trends on the basic council area table are now a 12 week trend, showing the total number of cases/deaths each week for the past 12 weeks
Its not per capita, as I think having the total figures makes it easier to see the actual up/downward trend in each area
Although I've spent hours debating on whether I want it to be per capita, and whether I want it to be columns or lines (as below), so it may still change in the future 😅

As promised, here is a thread giving an overview of the Covid-19 situation in Scotland from over the past week!
First some figures on cases, which are still rising at a rapid pace. Our daily and 7-day average figures are now the highest they've been since the pandemic began. 👎
Yes, the amount of testing we are doing each day has increased by quite a bit.
But the rise in cases is outpacing that, which has resulted in the positivity rate rising quite steeply too.
Our 7-day positivity rate is now at 11.2%, which is up from 7.2% this time a week ago.
In terms of age, 15-24 year olds have the highest rates right now by some distance.
Although every age group is seeing a fairly sharp increase right now. Even the older ones, to a lesser extent.
Here are some more figures on the global vaccinations!
As expected, the rollout has not been equal. Europe for example has fully vaccinated nearly half of its entire population, whereas Africa is on just 3%.
And nearly 2 of those 5 billion vaccinations have been in China alone!
Also, I've changed these charts on the UK local page.
In addition to some design changes, the scales on the map have been updated to account for the rising cases, and the popups on it now give more information
On the table, you can now search for 'cities' to see just those!
Also, I've started making some changes on the UK local page now!
First, the cases and deaths by specimen chart here now shows 4 areas, along with some other design changes. And by default, it will now show these 4 cities, one for each nation.
And second, I've added this map to show the number of new cases reported today in each local authority.
The colours are based on per capita figures, but you can zoom in to see a label that has the actual daily increase on it.
Or I should say at least 2% currently have covid..
Also, I've changed around the intermediate zone map (again, sorry!) to now show per capita rates instead of whole numbers.
I think with cases rising again it'll be better to show it this way for now
Although I have now added in labels which appear when you zoom in, showing the whole numbers.
These don't necessarily work too well in the cities as there are lots of tiny areas, and they can also make the map a bit slower. So let me know if you don't like them!
