How to manipulate the stats part 1

https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...more-than-5000

Good to see that The Guardian is on the ball. Several weeks ago I posted about the lack of a time cut off between positive test and death in the data used for the PHE figures.

In fairness to PHE, they were always clear about what they were reporting - the number of people who died after testing positive for Covid. In the short term, it's a reasonably ok way of doing things, but it becomes less accurate over time as - well - everybody dies eventually. With that in mind the correction was always going to be made, much as it will dissapoint those who want to use a high death rate as a political tool.

I wonder what they will do with the dinghy people now that there's a 14 day quarantine period for France?

Currently they take a photo, take a temperature reading, fill in a form then send them out to various places around the country, including Rotherham.

Done within 2 days

Get bigger boats so they can social distance.

Must be a Trump supporter. A bit like the unmasked 250,000 bikers at a rally this week in South Dakota.

The government has just announced that due to double counting, the number of Covid-19 deaths in England has been revised downwards. It is now estimated that between 31 March and 31 July only 4 people had Covid related deaths and that was as a result of being knocked down by a mobile testing unit.
