Live updates on the BBC website is highly preferable to listening to Boris in person I find

@fireliess well yes. But poking my eyeballs with a fork is highly preferable to listening to Boris in person.

As this is a numbers thread, I am happy to measure the frequency of fork-pokes.

@Hmmph

The vaccinations are in age order, rather than taking into account CEV, CV, sex, BAME, weight, occupation etc because it makes it straightforward and therefore easier to get as many done as quickly as possible. If you had to run a per person risk assessment the whole thing would take long and cost more.

Oh, absolutely, and I'm glad they haven't complicated it in this way...

I wondered if anyone would like this, retweeted by Alice Roberts

Can I just ask, on the Covid dashboard the number of hospital admissions doesn't appear to have been updated since the 22nd of December, is this normal for there to be such a lag in reporting on that site ?

Would it really not have been possible to introduce some filters ? Like NHS staff having first priority ?

And ,apologies as not data ,but on another thread talk of GP surgeries receiving same ( proportion ? ) of vaccines but due to with differing sizes and patient profiles ( sorry if wrong word ) resulting in admin to different priority groups varying from practice to practice .

It's like they wasted the many month that led here.... Citing "it quicker" at this point is infuriating imo. They had time, they are the gov, so they had resources. AND THEY HAVE THE DATA

Also, a poster on another thread said that there are figures online somewhere that show that children's admissions haven't increased. (I imagine even if there were to be an element of increase, they're likely still to be very low)

Does ONS publish admissions by age?

The poster got quite annoyed when asked if they could possibly post a link to the figures to which they referred.

I'd be interested if anyone knows (I find the ONS data very interesting but can't always find what I want, interesting if there is still a delay from mid December)

Is it too soon to look for data that correlates vaccination against death rates in age groups?

Watching with blind optimism.

@tootyfruitypickle

PM on Marr and clearly has no idea of the numbers of vaccines available from tomorrow. I know he’s bad for detail but you’d think he’d have those basic facts given to him before a key interview (or maybe he did but he didn’t read his briefing )

As someone who has suffered for years with something identical to long Covid, Boris is definitely still suffering. I find him quite painful to watch because I know how frustrating it is to go from being very quick witted to struggling to find every word.

@frumpety

That's because Scotland's data hasn't be updated since then, so the overall number isn't. If you filter for England, there is data there up to Dec 29.

@QueenStromba. I don’t think it’s that. He is a bit of a master at talking out interviews so that it’s very difficult to pin him down. You can see that Marr is very aware of this and does try and interrupt but Johnson is pretty skilled at this .

As in he talks and talks and then the interview time is up. Does it everytime .

You can work it out from the data download here -

coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/healthcare?areaType=nation&areaName=England

which has an XML spreadsheet with number of cumulative admissions each day, so you can calculate day on day changes. Its a bit of a raw measure as it doesn't differentiate between new admissions/diagnoses in hospital (The NSH Digital data does, but is only available to Dec 2). But....

Doing that shows that the 7 day running average for admissions for ages 6-17 is up from 8 per day on Nov 1 to 15 as of Dec 29 (88% increase); that for ages 18-64 is up from 400 to 880 (120% increase).

During that time the 7 day average of all cases increased 100%, (and I think it would be correct to say the increase in children was higher).

Soooooo....no, there is no evidence at the moment that a higher proportion of children are being admitted, I don't think. A higher number are, because more are infected, but not a higher proportion.

@CommanderBurnham

Way too soon I'm afraid! Late Jan at earliest.

This is an interesting explanation as to why -

DearPatricia, that's amazing! Do we have ICU stats by age as that might reassure people and be of interest?

And those stats do not tell us if the younger people were admitted because of Covid or with Covid (or caught it in hospital).

And I guess a third possibility is that some children (and indeed people of all ages) were admitted for something else (eg emergency surgery) and found to have asymptomatic COVID on testing.

The NHS report does differentiate between them

twitter.com/jburnmurdoch/status/1345459905709436928

John Burn-Murdoch of the FT - he looked at the data for admissions post christmas and found that 16% of infections (all, not just children) seemed to be hospital acquired.

The data is out and there's been a huge jump in my postcode.

@Barbie222
as a courtesy to others we usually do this if we spot an update:

cases: 54,990
deaths: 454

I can’t help but feel they released the data early to try and help the schools decision making along (the scientists that is!)
