That’s very empathic of you ! I think the whole point of preventing suicides is by letting the person discuss their feelings and work on a plan for them to feel better . With limited use of any anti depressants . 

 

I'd have thought it was quite obvious that it wasn't meant to be taken seriously. How was it any less empathic than you sharing posts claiming that Covid is a Big Pharma scam though?

Well, well. Good news!
 
 
"The United States' CDC says this is your risk of dying from Covid if you develop it:
 
0-19 years old ... 0.00003 (99.997 percent survival rate)
20-49 years old ... 0.0002 (99.98 percent survival rate)
50-69 years old ... 0.005 (99.5 percent survival rate)
70+ years old ... 0.054 (94.6 percent survival rate)

Source or are you just copying random stuff from Facebook?

 

I can only find this on the CDC site: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/covid-data/investigations-discovery/hospitalization-death-by-age.html

Where do this figs come from? Have you got a link?

 

They don’t add up or have I had too much 🍻?

 

If the 70+ have a survival rate of 94.6%.....

 

We need more BS screenshots posted as fact imo.

 

Debunked here.

The provisional figures for the first three quarters of 2020 show a slight decrease in suicide numbers, this is in general and for both males and females and across all age groups. These figures are likely to change and there is still October to December to add in, however it would be unlikely for the trend to change dramatically higher or lower.

I asked the group facilitator About 2020 suicide stats . He said early evidence shows no significant increase in the last years but they are still waiting on the full data . He said a and e paramedics have reported more para suicides though .

Fat doesn't make people fat. Too many calories do. If people want to eat 3500 calories a day, they will just eat more of things. We need to educate people from a young age on how to cook and what to cook imo. Also helping people have more work-life balance and less stress would help massively too.

 

Placing the overall health of a nation over individual rights can quickly become quite sinister and dangerous so I'm wary of that sort of thing.

Absolutely and it's not just fat content, but you are looking at a generation worth of lifestyle changes.  

 

Sometimes some quick win building blocks are needed too.

Just as Germany hinted months ago,  it looks like the EU as a bloc are exploring a way to go towards the Russian vaccine.  Germany probably foresaw the EU's vaccine poverty and is probably the main protagonist behind this now.  

 

Speaking of Germany, I see they have joined France & Belgium and done a complete u-turn on the AZ/Oxford vaccine and it's use in the over 65's, even the spacing out of doses, which Germany is going to adopt as well.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-56275342

 

The big problem they have now though, is persuading their citizens that it works, because for the last month or two they have been telling their over 65's not to have it and have made a song and dance about how the UK was taking a huge risk in the over 65's and the spacing out of the doses blah blah blah, now as one German doctor said a few days ago, there now has to be a huge PR and advertising campaign to try and convince the public that the AZ/Oxford vaccine works, and that won't just apply to Germany, that'll apply to the whole of the EU.

 

What a fecking mess they have got themselves into, and it's all self inflicted as well.

Figures looking good once again. Let’s hope we don’t do what they are apparently doing down south in places like London where there is a slow down and relax to quickly.

Thanks for that - excellent figures - cases falling fast with just 6 areas at the over 100 average. Not been this low since September I think

Where did you get today's local authority figures from?  The Public Tableau service doesn't appear to be working at the moment.

Tell me about it. :)

 

I just clicked on links until I found one for the Open Data page, which is the page I use.

 

https://www.opendata.nhs.scot/dataset/covid-19-in-scotland

 

As for the dashboard, I've no idea.

Tell me. :) It's a complete farce to change things around in the middle of all this, and then provide a non-working link on the main stats page.

 

I just clicked on links until I found one for the Open Data page, which is the page I use.

 

https://www.opendata.nhs.scot/dataset/covid-19-in-scotland

 

As for the dashboard, I've no idea.

Thanks for that. I should've checked there as I use other data from that source.

Nice. Going by the latest level system, only Clacks would be in Level 4, with all others 3 or lower. Edinburgh City just edging into Level 3, with 7 weeks of the COVID season still to go...

Just a wee proviso that there are several other indicators that are also taken into account (hospital/ICU bed availability, positivity rate, etc.), and all the ducks have to be in a row before a council area gets moved into a specific tier. In saying that, however, things are indeed looking good. :thumb:

It's not difficult to find the data if you really want to know. In previous years the provisional data and the final figures do not change by a large amount, that might be different this year due to Covid issues in death registrations offices, also the final qtr has no data yet.

 

I would say though that all the predictions of a massive increase in suicides due to lockdown appear not to have come about.

Thanks for that - excellent figures - cases falling fast with just 6 areas at the over 100 average. Not been this low since September I think

Yes it’s not a surprise that cases like corona viruses and their family of viruses fall at this time of year

Do you think the SG will continue to lump the whole of Lothian into Tier 3 if any one part is like West Lothian?

Thursday is the day you can broadly do a comparison as to how all the 4 nations are doing with their vaccination deployment plans as NHS England release their figures to close Sunday.  Scotland and Wales daily so you can use figures released on Monday.  Northern Ireland are more ad-hoc  but released broken down figures on 24th, so have a 3 day advantage on the other 3 nations.

 

 Thanks to @Footballfirstfor providing the headline targets as per the SAGE modelling paper as follows.

 

- Care Home Residents (95%); Care Home Workers (85%); 80+ (95%); 50-80 (85%); Under 50 - (75%)

 

The current position is (previous week in brackets) expressed as percentage of first dose vaccines administered.  England (weekly) and Wales (daily) rebaseline figures; Scotland has rebaselined their figures once; Northern Ireland still working off original baseline

Key shout outs for me is that the call from the PM, Matt Hancock and various ministers the week before last for the over 70s to come forward in England has been a huge success but significant challenges persist in Elderly Care Homes and NHS / Social Care staff.  The NHS England base front line staff figure has been reduced by 600k which I believe is the removal of Bank, Agency staff.

 

Data for anyone interested, want to challenge

Thursday has come round again and NHS England has released their stats to close Sunday so that a form of comparison can be done on how vaccine rollout is comparing across nations.

 

Still no consistent reporting across the nations although there is more of an emphasis on reporting by age groups to confirm population by age so as not to double count across cohorts.  I've added a table below as to where each nation is on their declared age group position (which is fundamentally just Scotland and England) with some assumptions, subtractions made to account for 'younger' age groups in Wales and NI.

 

Outside of age groups and key cohorts as to close Sunday (NI was close Tuesday as they only reported yesterday)

* Wales are now reporting Elderly Care Home Resident at 95%, not because of more vaccinated but they have dropped their target by 2240 (or 13%);  England still having challenges in making progress with Elderly Care Home Staff and Social Care workers.

 

By age table.  Interestingly since last week, NHS England has reduced it's population by nearly 400k in the 16 - 64 age group.

Also to close last night each nation has declared it's first and second dose position.  As with above I'm calculating percentages and the adult 16+ population rather than the total population.  Based on adult population Scotland is lagging behind England on 1st dose again again.  (I do recall Wales getting dogs about 6 weeks ago too for by last)

Has anyone had an antibody test?

There have been many posts where people thought they had symptoms especially earlier in the pandemic.

I just wondered if you did have a test now would it still  test positive for antibodies 10-12 months later.

Italy and EU block 250000 vaccine supply from Rome factory to Australia in ongoing row with Astra Zeneca 

It  will be distributed within EU now that they think it’s ok to use !

By the time tiers come round everyone will be ready for tier 1, be prepared to go into tier 3 1st no matter what the numbers are because they can't open things up all at once without knowing how it will effect the spread.

 

Expect things to be done nationally and like Boris has outlined.

I'd expect all the population centres in the Central Belt, Tayside and  Aberdeen to start in Tier3 for maybe 2 or 3 weeks, with the rural areas starting in Tier 2 regardless of the numbers, for the reason you outlined above.

Brilliant, go for it Seymour. 4.25 tomorrow afternoon for me. 👍

 

Absolute walk in the park. Done at the old RBS Younger building, lots of parking, very well marshalled. In and out in about 10 minutes (Sat in the car rather than inside for my 15 mins) then headed off. No reaction at all from me at this time so when you all get your blue envelope get it done.

Do you think the SG will continue to lump the whole of Lothian into Tier 3 if any one part is like West Lothian?

 

Hopefully if things keep on going the way they are, Frank, that's not a decision they'll have to make. :)

 

My guess is as good as anyone else's. What I do hope is that the SG have examined the effectiveness of the tiers from the first time around, have looked at factors exactly like this, including how transmissible the virus is from one adjacent area to another depending on the respective profiles of these areas (common commuting, inter-area travel for shopping, etc.), and have been able to come to conclusions as to whether we need to consider larger "common mixing areas" in deciding tiers.

 

But, as I say, I haven't a Scooby.

Thursday has come round again and NHS England has released their stats to close Sunday so that a form of comparison can be done on how vaccine rollout is comparing across nations.

 

Still no consistent reporting across the nations although there is more of an emphasis on reporting by age groups to confirm population by age so as not to double count across cohorts.  I've added a table below as to where each nation is on their declared age group position (which is fundamentally just Scotland and England) with some assumptions, subtractions made to account for 'younger' age groups in Wales and NI.

 

Outside of age groups and key cohorts as to close Sunday (NI was close Tuesday as they only reported yesterday)

* Wales are now reporting Elderly Care Home Resident at 95%, not because of more vaccinated but they have dropped their target by 2240 (or 13%);  England still having challenges in making progress with Elderly Care Home Staff and Social Care workers.

 

By age table.  Interestingly since last week, NHS England has reduced it's population by nearly 400k in the 16 - 64 age group.

Also to close last night each nation has declared it's first and second dose position.  As with above I'm calculating percentages and the adult 16+ population rather than the total population.  Based on adult population Scotland is lagging behind England on 1st dose again again.  (I do recall Wales getting dogs about 6 weeks ago too for by last)

I think you will be proved correct. It may be quite a swift run through the tiers (fortnightly) though if numbers keep going down.  The furlough extension means the SG have little incentive to unlock quickly

Italy and EU block 250000 vaccine supply from Rome factory to Australia in ongoing row with Astra Zeneca 

It  will be distributed within EU now that they think it’s ok to use !

 

 

 

 

See how that works out for Italy longer term.

AZ should just tell the EU that any more shitehousery will mean no contracts to supply the generation 2.0 vaccine and beyond.  Zilch.

Nice. Going by the latest level system, only Clacks would be in Level 4, with all others 3 or lower. Edinburgh City just edging into Level 3, with 7 weeks of the COVID season still to go...

Except that furlough doesn't help business owners that still have to cover fixed costs like rent, mortgages, maintenance etc. There isn't a furlough scheme in the world that can replicate a businesses ability to trade, turn a profit and invest. The SG will be forced in to following Boris's lead imo
