@Quartz2208

Why on earth would you go straight to a new vaccine resistant variant as a cause *@NannyandJohn* given if that were the case it would be spotted I think fairly quickly

Looking at the Twitter thread, a new Variant seems to be what Independent Sage (who correctly blew the whistle on Alpha and Delta very early) think it is.

There is talk of ‘Lambda’, although think that is very small amount of cases spread across UK

www.ft.com/content/b3ea5177-9312-418b-acb7-af16a3bdcd22

That’s paywalled, could you possibly C&P, @BanditoShipman?

Haven’t I seen an Epsilon somewhere too?

@JanFebAnyMonth if you google the headline you will be able to access a link straight to the article.

Delta was seeded in North Tyneside and Newcastle in early May. We has similar measures to Bradford etc. Whilst everyone’s eyes were on the North West, the numbers have been ticking up steadily here. The Sanger report has us at at least 90% Delta for the last few weeks.

I really, really doubt that there is some nefarious new strain in circulation here.

OK have found other articles. Lambda has multiple mutations which scientists are investigating. First identified in Peru.

Epsilon is “from” California and has recently been stepped down by the CDC as cases are decreasing.

Delta is accounting for 95% of cases across all of the UK, so that prevalence in NE doesn’t explain the differences.

@cantkeepawayforever

Have my full sympathy, unless you've been doing it itsy hard to understand the strain.

The age of profile of cases in Newcastle now is not too dissimilar to what we saw in Blackburn in late May - early June. I do not think we should be comparing NE to where the other regions are now. NW moved further away along the pandemic curve while places like Newcastle are still at a relatively early stage of the summer wave which has still got some runway (due to low vaccination levels and low acquired immunity from Alpha).

I agree we should always check and rule out the worst case scenario (e.g. a new variant) but I believe we are seeing fast early spread of Delta in the unvaccinated/susceptible population.

Just seen this.

It's no wonder why we're the laughing stock of the entire world, is it?

And to think that of all those countries on the map, WE'RE the ones about to remove all restrictions.

Ashamed and appalled.

Spain currently has got less restrictions in place than the uk. Night clubs have opened already and nobody has to self isolate nor have pcrs when landing.

Not sure the source of the map but delta is across europe already.

We aren't a laughing stock when you saw those terrible images from Italy did you laugh? How about when delta spread in India? Did you laugh? No. Because it's not funny. You've said a similar comment before on another thread and it's just stupid, ridiculous and not true.

To add to @Horehound comment Spain doesn’t care about uks situation at all. They just want tje tourism.
Spain currently has got big problems with the youths and the spikes they’re having in cases that doesn’t care at all about what happens in here (nearly 2000 people infected after going to Mallorca to celebrate end of school year )

I'm not so convinced as to the similarities between Newcastle and Blackburn. Two universities in Newcastle to start with.

The North East is not a completely homogenous blob - Wallsend and Wooler are very different places - so looking at just the regional level figures may be a touch simplistic.

These are the latest age rates across the council areas in the region.

Durham is a unitary county so stripping out Durham itself would be interesting. Newcastle again home to a University, or rather two. Although several other areas outstrip it in the 15-24 rates, which surprised me somewhat.

A swathe of Green for the older age groups in the main; although, and I'm falling into my own trap here, the North East at a regional level has some of highest vaccine uptake rates of any English region. Which in turn hides the lower take up rates - across age groups, not just overall - in Newcastle.

The North East has though the highest case rate of any region, and Newcastle has one of , if not the, highest rate of any council area.

You can see the creep into some of the councils into the 30s and 40s age groups; however the picture is mixed.

Doesn't look like that's working out well for Spain, does it @EasterIssland?

Whereas those countries with restrictions still in place are doing well despite Delta.

So sticking with the mixed picture argument, rates over the past few weeks for each North East council for individual age bands; and then the last two columns showing the percentage change in each of the last two weeks.

0-4s and 5-9s

10-14s

the three current, and likely to remain, peak groups; 15-19s, 20-24s, 25-29s

30-34s and 35-39s

40-44s and 45-49s

and finally 50-54s and 55-59s

@NannyAndJohn

Spain 1.1m tests /1m population Germany 710k tests/1m

Sure Germany is doing really well in cases

just a quick reminder

So Spain have 1.5x the amount of tests Germany have but around 15x the amount of cases.

Thanks for proving my point.
