Lastly after I was discharged from hospital after PE I was given a oximeter to keep a track of my oxygen levels and to make sure they remained at the required level. GP would phone and ask what my levels were every couple of days after discharge until things settled down. “Every couple of days” :lo...

If poor people are dying because they can't see their GP then perhaps they should get better jobs. :shock: :shock: :shock: :lol: Agree!

Numbers for flu used tend to also include pneumonia deaths Numbers for covid have definitely included pneumonia deaths you fool. Exactly!

Of course averages can be dangerous , however the absolute numbers do not lie In regard to the very few covid patients now being treated. As for GP’s , when I can be bothered I’ll do the same to those made up statistics as the ones you produced about case numbers and recent deaths where you were wr...

My case study is a reflection of the actual reality within which the NHS operates, not some idealistic, bombastic uneducated view of how the NHS runs that you obviously have. To resort to calling it 'excuses' demonstrates you have no feckin idea about the complexity of health systems and the challe...

Anyway, we’ve been pushed into a tightening of restrictions as Cases are proven to have stalled with the R below 1, deaths down to 50 a day (very low and falling), people really think that the steps aren’t planned?

Very dangerous, some would say misleading, using one day's data - 7 day average for UK is 121 deaths a day, about the same level as in mid October. We haven't been under a 7 day average of 100 deaths since late August! 7 day average for number of cases has been rising last few days not declining bu...

Just another CoVincidince Are you guys being deliberately stupid? Dozy - I am still waiting for a response to my question around the Yellow Cards - does the YC data show an increase in deaths as a result of vaccination and by how much?

Surely a better strategy would have been to try and keep cases low until we got even more folk fully vaccinated and allowed more time for covid medications, already under development and going through testing, to come on stream?

Oh for crying out loud - how inane can you get!

As a very basic example, since June the UK has had 5m cases. Germany has yet to reach 2m in that time period. What the UK have managed to do is spread that evenly enough over those months. What might kill the likes of Germany is getting those cases all at once. Also, very few of the cases in UK hav...

I read it as 95.8% for those with at least one dose. I'm just going by what Bimbo said, and the title of the report. You have to remember that those with a single dose would be younger and would have had their dose more recently. And a fall to 89.8% for those having had two or more suggests what? Y...
