Coronavirus

I’m not so sure about that JB. The power of a good orator… Hitler did a similar thing back in the thirties and managed to assemble quite a formidable army…

I watched, “Fall of the Cabal” on Youtube, just out of interest. These people, on both sides, put in just the right amount of truth to get people convinced then add some fantasy.
It’s scary that there are people who have influence and loads of dosh seem to be spoiling for a global fight with us in the middle, not trusting anyone.

I think something huge is going to happen.

Absolutely TessA, I take everything I read on t’internet and the news with a pinch of salt these days. I do believe it’s all just to antagonise the normally placid public…:cool:

like what tess?

Exactly. There’s enough grains of truth to make people think again. But the overall information is totally misleading. Official wording gets changed or information that has always been out there is sensationalised.

It will be like clash of the Titans…the lizard people will reveal themselves and breathe fire over out cities.

awww is that all, that’s boring Annie

I don’t know, but, it will knock our socks off!
Even the flippin’ weather’s been weird. :shock:

Whatever happened to the Age of Aquarius? Someone got their maths very wrong.

Where we have been:

1st June 2020

Covid data for Tuesday, 1 September 2020

Global Cases 25,634,102
Global Deaths 854,763

Australia
Cases 25,819
Deaths 657
Critical 26
Cases per Million 1,011

UK
Cases 335,873
Deaths 41,501
Critical 60
Cases per Million 4,943

USA
Cases 6,211,796
Deaths 187,736
Critical 15,864
Cases per Million 18,748

Only about 3000 deaths in the UK in the last month, I’d say that was fairly average…

In Quarter 2 (Apr to June) 2019, there were 118,848 deaths registered in England. This was 1,794 fewer deaths than Quarter 2 2018, but 908 more deaths than the five-year average (2014 to 2018). Of the deaths registered in Quarter 2 2019 there were 59,793 male deaths and 59,055 female deaths.6 Sep 2019

Do those figures include deaths from un-natural causes OGF?
I suppose it makes no difference if we work on averages but this
year has not been average due to lockdown, which has practically
stopped all road traffic for several months which could distort this
years figures?
However , lt would appear from your figures that excess deaths
figures have NOT suffered any large increases this year so far?
We may find that when the annual flu mortality is added to your
figures then the yearly average will rise, who knows??

Donkeyman!

Looking through your data Brucy,
It would seem that uk is performing better on the covid statitics
than australia??
From your figures australia started with 7202 cases& 103 deaths
And ended with 26000 cases& 657 deaths
Bwhich is an increase of 3-8 times cases & 6 times the deaths.

Whereas uk figures went from 275K cases &38K deaths to
end with 335K cases & 41K deaths this
translates to inreases of 20% cases and 25% deaths ??
It would appear that ozzies increases are exponential whilst UKs
figures are merely incremental ??
I expect you realise that the maths is only near enough?
Keep the data coming as l expect UKs figures to continue to
improve!

Donkeyman!

I’m not quite sure what you mean by “3000” or “last month” since your quote contains neither and, indeed, refers to 2019.

ONS say:

Across the UK, there were 10,577 deaths (all causes) registered in Week 33 (week ending 14 August 2020), of which 146 deaths involved the coronavirus (COVID-19). This was 265 deaths higher than the UK five-year average and 370 deaths higher than Week 32.

In Week 33, England had the highest number of deaths involving COVID-19 with 125 deaths, followed by Wales with 14 deaths, Northern Ireland with 4 deaths and Scotland with 3 deaths.

The figures quoted were ONS, and the nearest average stats that I could find…

Well, you obviously found the wrong page and the wrong stats … :lol:

Try this page:

Deaths registered weekly in England and Wales, provisional: week ending 14 August 2020

Release date: 25 August 2020

Next release: 2 September 2020

Cheers Omah…:023:

Did you mean 30,000? It’s 36,174 in the last four weeks of data available. That compares with 36,275 in a five year average so a slight drop. They have been slightly below average since mid Jun, but went over in the last week of data (week ending 14th Aug). Will be interesting to see the release tomorrow.

But this shows that the Covid pandemic is well under control here which is great news. Plus there’s a fortuitous effect of people being more careful. Although I’d be more interested to see data on weight gain over the same period. You can understand why they want people coming from high risk countries to quarantine.

It took us a long time but we seem to have the virus under control for now.

Good news indeed Annie, just a few isolated areas experiencing small rises in the infections, but I wonder how many of those are because we are doing more testing now…The 3000 I quoted were from Bruce’s figures for the UK deaths since June to the present day…38,489 on the 1st June to 41,501 on 1st September…
