COVID STATS AND UPDATE

I would also say that absolutely the government has made the correct decision for once. The movement between Bristol and North Somerset is such that they need to be treated as one for lockdown purposes. So these measures are in place until 14th December. To my mind the stats should be below 50/100000 and falling, if they are to be relaxed at all. We saw what happened with the eat out fiasco, and premature relaxation of pubs. Universities still remain to be sorted?

So after 3 weeks of lockdown the latest figures from the BBC are below

	27.09	7.10	23.10	27.10	5.11	12.11	19.11	26.11
North Somerset	31	53	79	123	177	243	304	209
Cornwall	20	31	29	45	47	65	90	59
Bristol	46	143	228	328	350	428	480	325
Chelmsford	41	63	68	102	91	94	150	115

Aberdeen					41	36	58	61
Belfast					317	226	213	158
Newry					199	140	118	106

So a general synopsis. Most places in England not yet back to 5.November start of lockdown 2.0, or close to apart from Liverpool and Manchester which have been in lockdown for weeks. National average is 169.
