What daily confirmed cases in your area

[Sadless]

Hello I keep a eye on the daily confirmed cases in my town it seems to be going up slowly we had 13 confirmed yesterday.

What's it like in your area?

149

3 in the whole parish this week, 1 last week, none for the last month, so it’s trending up if you can identify a trend from such low numbers.

5 yesterday but that was for the entire region; can't get town-level data for Scotland unfortunately.

How do I see day by day cases? I can only find the cumulative total

53 in the last week.

Town of 100,000 Italy
10 currently positive
34 in total since March.
5 deaths in total since March

The mayor tells us every day.

We haven't gone back to school yet though! Dreading what it will be like come first week of October, though everyone will have to wear masks so fingers crossed.

Bolton. Rate is currently 193 per 100K, around 95 new cases a day. Less than a week ago it was less than 100 per 100k. Some places, including a local McDonalds, are closed due to the number of staff testing positive (McDonalds was 2 last week, 5 new ones this week). 48 hour closures for deep cleaning in some shops. Some primaries are closing year groups, the university is building marquees to create extra space. All food retial is now take away only and there is a curfew for pubs etc. High schols are currently open but seeing how they are piled onto buses I can't see that lasting.

This is concerning. Our figures in Birmingham are about a week behind you. Is there anything you think Bolton could have done to prevent that doubling in the past week? I suspect we willbe where you are in a week. Already cases at both my DCs' schools.

3 and it's been like it for a few weeks now, no change 🤷🏽‍♀️

I'd like to know but it's impossible to get the figures for here. We live in a huge very rural county. There's been a significant increase in cases in the county, due to an outbreak at a factory in a town 38 miles away. No idea how many cases are in the local are though, hardly any I think.

@middleager Personally I think Bolton needs a full and proper lockdown. It is being spread by home visits and I have plenty of first hand knowledge of families visiting siblings and parents even on Thursday evening this week, after the complete ban. I know the teenagers I teach are meeting up over the weekend but there is nothing we as a school can do. People are just ignoring it. any school transmission isn't showing up really yet as we've only been back just over a week, but I expect it to increase greatly, especially as there is no social distancing in the buildings and we have large colleges and the university, so I'm not talking about little kids, but teenagers and young adults.

I don’t think it’s ever spread in our immediate area/parish (three villages) - the only care home has never had a case and afaik only two or three people were suspected to have died with Covid, and I think they were terminally ill already sadly .

New that sounds worrying, especially as you are working in education, where I fear we are going to see teacher predictions come true.

Where can you get town level data from?

I am not sure about daily, but according to the bbc we had 12 cases last week, out of a population of 638,000 people. Not deaths, cases .....

Is there any official or expert estimate on how many cases are being caught, ie whether the real total is likely to be 10 times the official, or 20 etc? I have heard estimates along those lines for other countries but not here. I guess we just cannot know how many are asymptomatic, aymptomatic but not tested, or fall into the high false negative result. Then there are false positives to consider too.

You can also look at the data on the gov.uk dashboard

At the bottom of the cases page is a map - in the top right hand side you can down load the data set which is at MSOA level (in most 2 tier districts areas they are the parish). In unparished areas they relate to Neighbouthoods. The data set is a time series do you can see changes over time. They have recently added slicers to the spreadsheet so you can drill down by Govt office region, Upper tier, lower tier.

The data is a week in arrears, which is as up to date as you will get due to processing times associated with the testing. It up dates on a Friday.

@middleager I think the predictions will be right. When we starting saying all of this it was because we have seen other viruses spread, we know we can't distance and, I hate to say it, we can't trust the rest of society to be responsible enough without hte Government actually taking action to reduce community transmission.

I have everything crossed for Tier 2 here so we can just reduce the number of kids in the building; being this packed is not maintainable.

10. 1600 overall since March

1 in an area of 310,000. Not enough cases in hospital to release figures.

Cases are very low in the vast majority of the country, despite the scaremongering.

6 cases last week, 3 the week before, and 0 the week before that. Population of approx 130,000 people. So very very low. But we were hit hard in march/April and have been top of the list for cases/100,000.
