The area where I live have lowering infections. Anyone else?

[hettyhooverdoover]

I look most days at the figures in my area and we are now 104 cases per 100,000. It was 160 the week before Christmas.

We have had no cases in my child's school, no bubble has closed since Sep. I feel we can't treat the whole country in the same way, I don't think all schools need to close like people are demanding. We are tier 3 now but when cases were higher we were tier 2?

No. It's shooting up where I live. Cases have doubled in a week.

@Neolara

No. It's shooting up where I live. Cases have doubled in a week.

Wow, that's scary Maybe I will talk too soon and we will have a sudden rise?

No ours is shooting up at a scary rate.

Ours is shooting up.

Where are you OP?
Ours is doubling! Up to over 550 per 100,000 now.

Devon

Shooting up here in my part of the Midlands (Black Country).

Where is everyone getting up to date figures?

Ours was around 400 per 100k a month and a half ago, then it shot up to 1200k two weeks later. It's now hovering around 1k per 100k.

DS' school went from no cases to outbreak (school closed/7 out of 9 classes had bubbles burst) in the space of 5 days, so I wouldn't get complacent with this virus at all.

If you google. bbc local coronavirus cases, you can put in your postcode and it comes up with the figures.

Devon here too @hettyhooverdoover

I honestly feel that the way we live down here - small,close knit communities, fewer shops etc has really helped to keep infections low pretty much throughout.

Yes and very spread out. It was going higher 2 or 3 weeks ago but I can't understand how its dropped really low when everywhere else is spreading rapidly.

Ours has gone down. It was very high about a month ago. We’re in West Yorkshire

These aren't up-to-date though, really. Figures are currently for the week ending 28/12 (27/12 for Scotland) and looking at the national figures have likely changed now we're 9 days post-Christmas.

Yes I think cases in the SW won’t sky rocket.

We are in Bucks and clearly the mutant super spreading variant is here. We were doing ok up until end of November.

No cases in either DS school in the half term before Christmas. It really has been the last two weeks cases have shot up.

BBC isn't up to date, only up to the 28th.

I look at the gov.U.K. Interactive map.

We are in suburban Glasgow. Our cases are a up a bit, but have been in the 100 - 200 range per 100,000 for weeks. Certainly not seeing the dramatic rises which are being experienced elsewhere.

Somerset keeps going up

Ours has doubled in a week (west mids)

Well ours has lowered from 900 and something to 800 and something.

Not sure whether that’s something to get excited about.

Ours are going back up again 😭I'm in Bolton at one point our figures were over 500/ 100,000 we got down to around 140/100,000 we are now at 210/100,000

@hettyhooverdoover

I think we are prone to clusters here which then don't expand massively because of the way that we live. I think the rocketing recently was due to a couple of major clusters which then die out rather than expand.

My theory anyway.
