No, testing levels have fallen

HE crisis isn’t over. No matter what Borisnaro et al say. Health professionals have repeatedly bemoaned politicians’ apathy on the matter.

We’re meant to think that our government has a monopoly on deciding when a crisis is a crisis and when it ceases to be a crisis. And not because actual public safety is a priority. At the moment, as shown above, BillBC is turning the British public into careless COVIDiots so that rich sociopaths who don’t mingle with the ‘hoi polloi’ can get richer, having already eliminated a lot of small businesses. They’re crushing the middle class to make themselves richer. They’re moreover taxing everyone through inflation. Just because they can get away with it (e.g. price-fixing cartels in energy and food), not because it’s necessary.

BillBC is a lying machine with a private financial agenda. Now it leverages the lack of data due to Easter to falsely claim that numbers are decreasing. Yes, well… number of tests have decreased. Lowest since 2020, as I’ve noted here earlier this month. We’re meant to hide the problem now? Or actually solve it?

Look at the official portal today; the British government is saying that data is “not available” “not available” “not available” “not available” when it comes to COVID-19. Then… they use the graphs to present the lack of data as a “decline”. This is gross misuse of statistics and it is offensive to basic scientific integrity.

And watch this section! Not updated in almost a week! Our regime does not want to share data on COVID-19 with us. Maybe it’s just not a priority because of holidays (be happy, peasants!! Be merry!) as if the virus takes a “break”. Meanwhile millions get infected each month (some don’t know it) and we’re ignoring the long-term costs.

Just an hour after we wrote about a surge in the number of people who had been hospitalised we are seeing, as expected, a sharp increase in deaths. This is the highest number in a very long time.

Those aren’t cases but tests

F you are one of the many people who feel like COVID-19 is a thing of the past and it’s time to socialise or mingle like before, then you’re been conned by greedy capitalists who want you back in your ‘cage’ (office space). It’s spring already and we have over 20,000 people battling COVID-19 inside a hospital.

Based on latest NHS figures, the number of COVID-19 patients in UK hospitals increased for 3 days in a row and it is now above 20,000. It’s 15 degrees outside, but many are in hospital beds with COVID-19. How many:

11-04-2022 20,032
10-04-2022 19,611
09-04-2022 19,481

Notice that it increases.

Daily number of COVID-19 patients (admitted to hospital) by date:

07-04-2022 2,212
06-04-2022 2,400
05-04-2022 2,548
04-04-2022 2,420
03-04-2022 2,285
02-04-2022 2,062
01-04-2022 2,109

815,569 Brits have thus far been hospitalised (for COVID-19). Some are permanently damaged. Many will get re-infected. Recovery did not make them safe.

Over 600 reported dead in the past couple of days, a week after the government had also tucked in another 2,700 ‘missing’ deaths.

Meanwhile, testing value has diminished. ‘We’ gradually stop testing people as if the problem just went away. Corporations hardly pursue any permanent solution. Governments like to pretend this is “old news”…

o today — after silence since Friday! (who needs information during weekends anyway?) — I decided to immediately go to the official NHS portal, checking the latest coronavirus-related data knowing that actual tests are less than half what they used to be only weeks ago (so one might get a false impression of calm, simply due to lack of tests). I’ve decided to write a report and then share it here, as usual, knowing that BillBC (BBC) is not informing the public, it’s just propaganda for “the economy” (rich people’s interests).

So today over 200 deaths were added to the tally, days after the government had added another 2,700+ ‘missing’ deaths (last week). See, they try to belittle the severity by delaying the disclosure. The same thing China did.

Compare 1,600 weekly+ deaths to wintertime.

Weekly deaths with COVID-19 on the death certificate by date registered:

25-03-2022 1,005
18-03-2022 829
11-03-2022 821
04-03-2022 815
25-02-2022 879

As can be seen above, there’s a 45% increase in one week. In just one week! And that’s in springtime; this is worse than in 2020.

But, you know, “go watch football, lads!”

And “ladies, please go shopping!”

“Leave it all behind…”

The virus that AstraZeneca and Pfizer “killed” last year is still with us, and it isn’t due to low vaccination rates (it’s very high in the UK). It was ‘eradicated’, just like the testing rates over here. It’s like they do just 3 million tests per week now, compared to almost 10 million before. They used to make tests (or kits) widely available, but they ended it last month because all that testing is bad for poll ratings of Borisnaro and Tories. There’s local election coming…

Death tolls for this week:

08-04-2022 347
07-04-2022 317
06-04-2022 233
05-04-2022 368
04-04-2022 210

Charted:

Today there was lots of drama, including delays and excuses

Need more time to ‘cook’ the numbers a bit (perhaps to downplay the whole pandemic issue)? This promise wasn’t fulfilled. After 5:30 the same message was still showing. I had even bypassed cache. They’re making false promises.

Fewer tests? Well, that might still not help hide COVID-19 patients rushed into hospitals, so disregard testing numbers (or cases).

Oops. We forgot some dead people (as in “let the bodies pile up high”). Let’s just “throw them in” on a Wednesday when nobody pays much attention.

The government and the BillBC have systemically lied and issued fake news to downplay the situation (in order to save face for AstraZeneca, which incidentally has a conflict of interest at BillBC)

There’s also this:

6 April 2022

Log category:data issue

Deaths figures for England include backlog

Due to a processing error, a number of people who died within 28 days of a positive COVID-19 test in 2022 were not reported in a timely manner. 2,714 deaths within 28 days of a positive test were added retrospectively on 6 April 2022.

The backlog of deaths has been added to the cumulative total for England and the UK. Newly-reported deaths for England and the UK on 6 April 2022 represent the numbers that would have been reported without the extra retrospective deaths.

For regions and local authorities in England, today’s newly-reported deaths within 28 days of positive test include all the backlog of deaths added today. Use caution when looking at the 7-day totals and change figures shown on the postcode search page for the next 14 days.

Numbers of deaths by date of death have been updated to include the backlog.

They’ve ‘quietly’ added another 9/11 (2,714 deaths) today. Sheeeeesh, nothing to see here… just a bunch of names. We cannot hide them forever.

Last year we saw similar stunts and in 2020 China did the same thing, adding about 3,000 deaths in just one day (doubling the running total) after faking relative calm for months. “Mea culpa, nothing to see here, we’ll just amend a bunch of old figure nobody pays attention to anymore…”

Update for 07/04/2022:

We’re still at record highs for the season, despite testing rates falling. That cannot hide deaths and escalations.

In hospital:

06-04-2022 20,409
05-04-2022 20,404
04-04-2022 20,433

Deaths this week:

07-04-2022 317
06-04-2022 233
05-04-2022 368
04-04-2022 210

ORE people in hospital translates into more deaths.

The numbers don’t lie. Tories do. It’s harder to lie and to spin when hospitals and moratoriums report their data. The economy has sunk, people keep dying, and the situation is out of control because more patients enter hospitals than leave them, either dead or alive. We’re talking about COVID-19 in isolation here.

See the number of people currently hospitalised, as of 04-04-2022 (spoiler: 20,398 in hospital, highest since February 2021). Here’s a graph:

More people hospitalised means more people will die. Today, or 05-04-2022 (368 deaths), is highest since 02-02-2022 (552 deaths). Maybe next Tuesday we’ll be at 400+. That’s about 5,000 dead Brits dying every month. Policies kill.
