What are the chances of Edinburgh going down a tier? Missing the pub something terrible!

The students will go home for Christmas and Edinburgh's cases will go down and it will look good for pints all round.

Then they'll return from the plague pits of England and we'll be back to Tier 3.

As ScotGov ignored my recommendations last Tuesday, It is time for another overall review and look at each council with  changes coming tomorrow.  We can look back in time from 7 day figures to November 13th and compare with, 7 day figures to 4th December.   Basically progress for all councils in the last documented 21 days. The data 13th November was the day before all the moves to Tier 4 etc.  So those councils now have about 14 days of data in the new higher tier 4 restrictions.

Overall cases per 100K were 141.5 in Scotland and are now 98.5. That is a decrease overall of 30.39% in a period of 21 days,  of which 14 days were in higher restrictions.   

My observations would say that the restrictions do appear to be working. with hugely more progress in Tier 4 areas than previously when in Tier 3.  Also it is quite clear the populated areas in Tier 3 are struggling to reduce their numbers. 

Conclusion Tier 4 worked even though the School Bashers may deny it.  

 

I now have the last 21 days of Data for each Council.

Start with the tier 4 Councils and move down to Tier 1    My comments  Bold 

Stirling Tier 4  167.7 to 80.7   Decrease   51.87%        Another with a great week. Great chance of double promotion to Tier 2

Clackmannanshire  Tier 3    99.0 to 211.5  increase  113.63 %    Although it looks bad the population is only circa 45K and cases is 109 people.  Should stay tier 3 but if anyone was getting Tier 4 it would be them. Sauchie appears to be the epicentre of bad behaviour just now.

Falkirk   Tier 3     88.3 to 66.5  Decrease 24.68%    Bad week of increases. If no Tier 2 last week then hard to see this week.

Surely if Stirling could go from Tier 4 to 2, Falkirk should also go to 2? I agree that's unlikely to happen as Falkirk could have been Tier 2 last week. 

Could the Clackmannanshire figures be what keeps Falkirk and Stirling in Tier 3?

"Hopefully by the Spring we can get all the restrictions lifted". appears to be the message from Matt Hancock. ......but adds "it's all dependent on the vaccine manufacturers".

Fingers crossed.

Translation: when this inevitably fucks up, it will be someone else to blame. 

These c***s spend more time covering their tracks than doing actual work

Watching the first vaccinations live on TV and can't believe they are "wasting " vaccine on 80 and 90 year olds when for 9 months the expert on here has drummed it into us that they were all going to die anyway. What a waste[emoji2957] [emoji849]

 

One interesting stat this morning were the numbers of NHS workers who are still "shielding" and haven't worked since this all kicked off. BBC put it at tens of thousands who are being vaccinated early to get them back to work.

Sounds like, certainly out in Lanarkshire, the NHS staff are getting a good amount of priority, thought it was meant to be vaccinators and those caring for the vulnerable first but so far a few porters / general staff have been booked in as well as some general ward staff.

Think if we get it fired through anyone in a hospital that will save a lot of lives.
