No immediate loosening of zero-Covid strategy

Zero-Covid, people’s war to stop the spread of the virus

Recent weeks

Tens of millions, confined home

60 towns and cities

Dynamic zero-Covid, linked to Mr Xi

Strict lockdowns, mass testing, constant scanning of health codes, travel restrictions

Trains out of Xinjiang suspended

Roadblocks

Widespread reports, food and medicine

Quarantine centres, family separations

IDs linked to health code apps

No vaccine compulsion

(Local vaccines only)

Professor Liang Wannian, government Covid expert panel

Zero-Covid might come to an end?

It’s hard to say

Because one thing I am sure of is, we won’t kill the virus any time soon.

We’re waiting for more effective medicines and more effective vaccines.

2 hours ago: England and Wales Increase in Deaths by Age Group: 62% in Children, 12% in Teens, Almost 20% in Adults, and 16% in Old People

The data has just been published irrespective of age groups. Let’s examine how it affects different age groups. The hypothesis or the assumption the media makes is, only very old (and frail, with “underlying conditions”) folks are dying more. Is that true? Let’s find out.

Pre- (2019) and Post-COVID-19 (2022) in Week 41, based on a full (complete) sample of about 10,000 deaths:

2019 W41
Ages 01-14: 16
Ages 15-44: 302
Ages 45-64: 1,137
Ages 65-74: 1,595
Ages 75-84: 2,869
Ages 85+: 4,008

2022 W41
Ages 01-14: 26
Ages 15-44: 338
Ages 45-64: 1,351
Ages 65-74: 1,901
Ages 75-84: 3,413
Ages 85+: 4,627

Increase:
Ages 01-14: 10 (+62%)
Ages 15-44: 36 (+12%)
Ages 45-64: 214 (+18.8%)
Ages 65-74: 306 (+19.2%)
Ages 75-84: 544 (+19%)
Ages 85+: 621 (+15.5%)
Total: 1731

What is the cause of these massive increases?

Crime?
NHS defunding?
Lack of access to treatment/screening during lockdowns etc.?
Depression/suicide/addiction?
Malnutrition/poverty?
Direct death from COVID-19?
Health damage after COVID-19 contraction?
Effect of vaccines?
Accidents (bath/car)?
Cardiac events (may be related to the above)?
A combination of factors above?

Going back to winter, we have more data:

For 2022 we have (total deaths for the month)

January 87589
February 83044
March 93135

Pre-COVID-19 (2019)

January 85105
February 81009
March 86739

So the population moved from about 0.9% of the population dying per year to 1.2%. Make that a decade and we’re talking about a shift from about 9% to 12%. Longevity/life expectancy is decreasing. So much “progress”, eh?

Data as ODF

So far in October, the 10^th month, we’ve been seeing 19% more deaths than before the pandemic (in England and Wales).

So the problem has clearly not been tackled. Changing Prime Minister won’t fix this, either.

Half an hour ago figures came out for the past week.

Comparing pre-COVID years to 2022 mortality levels

ome new numbers were published just over a day ago:

To quote the summary: “In the week ending 7 October 2022 (Week 40), 11,207 deaths were registered in England and Wales; 400 of these deaths mentioned “novel coronavirus (COVID-19)”, accounting for 3.6% of all deaths.”

But how many of them were COVID survivors just ‘limping along’ and dying later without that counting as COVID-19 linked?

Further down it says: “The number of deaths registered in the UK in the week ending 7 October 2022 (Week 40) was 12,793, which was 13.7% above the five-year average (1,538 excess deaths); of these deaths, 449 involved COVID-19, which was 106 more than in Week 39.”

But this 5-year average includes 3 years of COVID-19 (this year, 2021, and 2020), so let’s go back in time and see pre-COVID death rates for this wee.

In 2019 week 40 had 9,799 deaths and the 5-year average was 9,450. See screenshot (we already uploaded the original report as ODF):

11,207 – 9,450 = 1757.

So for this week alone, for England and Wales alone, we’re 1757 higher than the 5-year average of pre-COVID levels.

1757 is almost 19% of 9,450, so we’re taking about an increase of almost 20% of this week.
