@ancientgran - there is a more detailed breakdown at www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/statistical-work-areas/covid-19-vaccinations/ although it is always a few days behind. It does not go down to the more detailed level as yet though.

@sirfredfredgeorge

It is not just an issue of public health, but of economic strategy. If enough people are not vaccinated it will affect the whole population

I don't get this argument, as that argument is not made for the influenza vaccines, and influenza is typically more dangerous in the covid "non-vulnerable" groups. So why do believe it's so important for covid?

It isn't a question of 'danger'. Danger is more a matter of concern for the individual, not for the Government. The Government are concerned about public and economic resources, eg health services and financial/income support. Lockdown for example, is not in order to prevent deaths but to prevent the NHS being overwhelmed.

Amongst the reasons that Coronavirus is more infectious than flu is that it can be spread by infected people who have not yet developed symptoms and do not even suspect that they are infectious. This is almost never the case with flu.

Influenza has large numbers of asymptomatic cases, depending on the strain and all sorts, estimates vary widely but e.g. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3353138/ describes in their study less than 25% of those who tested positive in a PCr test as having an illness. So I would like to see more evidence of your "never the case with flu".

And danger is directly correlated with the chance the NHS is overwhelmed, as only those in danger require NHS treatment.

Is it definitely that you either are or aren't protected though? I had the swine flu jab and was the only one in my family to, that winter we all got a horrendous flu and I was the least ill so I presumed it was swine flu and I'd been less ill due to the jab. It wasn't a normal flu - and I do get flu very badly normally so could see this was different; or that's what I thought at the time . I was assuming this might be the same ?

Asymptomatic influenza, yes. However that is not the same as being spread by asymptomatic cases.

With Covid, the illness is spread by those who have not yet developed symptoms. The incidence of spread in those who remain asymptomatic is still under study.

re the NHS - the NHS is also needed by those who do not have Covid at all. That is why the correlation is NOT direct.

Yes @tootyfruitypickle, it mitigates the disease, meaning if you do get it, you're much more likely to have a mild or moderate case (in general terms I know figures vary for each different vaccine).

@JanuaryChill phew thanks, thought I'd got it wrong there for a sec !

21088/587

Looks like 600,000 vaccines yesterday. 598,389 first doses. Wow.

And 10,621 second doses. That's just delightful.

and 598,389 vaccinations 😯

Making a total of 8.9m first vaccines given, an average of 375k every day!

At this rate we will get to 13.9m easily by 14th Feb.

Doesn’t include today so probably around 9 million in total by now!

Last Sundays reported figures for comparison

30,004 / 610

@MRex

That is a pretty incredible achievement

I think the next 7 days will be really interesting on case numbers to see if we can keep similar decreases as this week. I'm seriously keeping my fingers crossed the downward trend carries on.

A definite drop in deaths this week, not a huge one, but enough to look hopeful.

Essex is Blue!!!!!!!

That's great @InterfectoremVulpes, it's so nice to see the dark blue driving back the purple.

In other excitement, my MSOA is light blue!!! No new cases for a few days even gives me hope of seeing green again. One day we will start to see the slightly sickly mustard yellow nearly everywhere (and wish they'd picked a different colour for that).

Essex is Blue!!!!!!!

Glad to see I'm not the only one who gets excited by the changing colours on the map

My MSOA is still purple but the 7 days rolling rate has come down from 1500+ to just over 500. Definitely a movement in the right direction.

We may have signs of our first council area recording zero cases on a weekday for some time.

Torridge at the moment showing zero cases for last Thursday , need another day or so to be sure, but with the lag on spec dates shortening cautious optimism.

The last weekday when any council area recorded zero cases was 9th December (Copeland in Cumbria)

Go back to last august and it was not unusual for getting on towards 100 councils to have zero cases on a weekday, with more again on the weekends.

Torridge does have a fairly low population at just under 70,000, but even so go to start somewhere.

Bit of a warm fuzzy glow about this being from the area:

Tempers this report a little about the second highest death figures in the county, after the North West.

https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/shocking-figures-reveal-north-east-19585435

My back-of-a-fag-packet calculation is that 1.15% of the adult population of 🇬🇧 were vaccinated yesterday.

Huge credit to the NHS, the manufacturers, the army, the volunteers and yes, the government on a magnificent effort. 👏👏👏

That is astounding! 👏

Thank you, it will be interesting if they do a more detailed breakdown.
