NHS chief and Covid admissions stats turn out to be false

[Againstmachine]

So we have the new head of NHS England stating that admissions are 14 times higher that last year, when they are actually significantly lower.

So we now have someone who is eithier incompetent or a liar which is it.

If August hadn’t been omitted then fine

Otherwise the language sounded current

Because it was the latest available figures for the point she was trying to make about how much has been done in difficult circumstances during the last 100 days.

That's not true. You can check the government's own covid portal, this information is fairly up to date.

I’ve checked the covid portal, I might be being blind, but I can’t see the figures for how many diagnostic tests and elective treatments were carried out in September and October.

Could you post them here if you have them?
