In leeds the rate per 100k has dropped since just before the weekend so I feel West Yorkshire will escape that
Yeah, the rate in Middlesbrough has also dropped slightly, but I still expect to go into Tier 3 sooner or later. Gotta save the South East from the worst of it.:rolleyes:

A further 152 people who tested positive for coronavirus have died in hospital in England, bringing the total number of confirmed deaths reported in hospitals to 31,427, NHS England said on Thursday.

Patients were aged between 36 and 97. All except seven, aged between 61 and 95, had known underlying health conditions.

The deaths were between September 3 and October 21. Six other deaths were reported with no positive Covid-19 test result.

Rates for new Covid-19 cases in England remain highest in the 10-19 and 20-29 age groups, according to the latest weekly surveillance report from Public Health England – though the numbers for both groups have started to decline.

Among 20 to 29-year-olds, the rate was 274.3 cases per 100,000 people in the week to October 18, down from 300.9 in the previous week.

The rate among 10 to 19-year-olds was 207.7 per 100,000, down from 294.4.

By contrast, the rate for the 70-79 age group was 77.9, up from 64.8, while for people aged 80 and over it was 114.4, up from 88.7.

Why don’t we have rapid testing everywhere yet? That would fix everything! Test people before they go on a flight, no need for masks on the plane. Or before they go in a concert or to a football match, if would fix everything before we get a vaccine!!

ARTICLE: Email sent by an NHS Trust chief to his staff, seen by The Mail on Sunday, reveals Health Service is preparing for a national vaccination programme before Christmas

In memo to staff earlier this month, Glen Burley, chief executive of George Eliot Hospital NHS Trust, in Warwickshire, wrote: 'Our Trust, alongside NHS organisations nationally, has been told to be prepared to start a Covid-19 staff vaccine programme in early December'

It can also be disclosed that the Government has introduced new laws that would allow UK to bypass EU approval process if safe and effective jab is ready before end of post-Brexit transition period on December 31

Its 25th October today. Someone died quite recently in one of the trials. There is no way there is going to be a vaccine ready to roll out before Christmas.

Are you talking about the Johnson and Johnson one? That person was given placebo not the vaccine from memory

the Pfizer vaccine results are expected this week as well I think

Can confirm it was someone that had the meningitis vaccine, and their death was unrelated. I know a couple of people on the trial and they were kept well informed.

Flurry of Vaccine news coming out today



Medics and high-risk patients are likely to receive Oxford's Covid-19 vaccine before the end of the year, the professor leading the project said.

Adrian Hill said emergency approval would allow those most in need to receive the jab while the final trials are still under way.

Full authorisation would then follow, meaning the rest of the population could receive the vaccine from early 2021.

rumours going around about west yorkshire going into tier 3 soon though to be honest you could probably say that about anywhere that isn't cornwall or north norfolk
