Yep, it only takes one family to all test positive and suddenly you are off the list and staying on lockdown.

Just two areas of Yorkshire have seen their coronavirus infection rate rise in the latest figures from Public Health England.
And the three local authority areas currently under stricter lockdown measures have all seen their rates fall, as councils demand the government release them from the tougher rules. An announcement on the restrictions is expected later today.

There's been 4 deaths in Yorkshire in the last 8 days. -

This is all bollocks now...
We all know whats what. If the death rate is low then we should be cracking on as normal.

It's worth noting that Yorkshire was seeing about 100 cases per day at the end of July (often posted on this thread) and we now have about 0.5 deaths per day a month later. If we picked up EVERY SINGLE infection in testing, that would be a mortality rate of 0.5% - about 3 times as bad as average UK flu. We clearly are not getting every single case when testing is voluntary and maybe 80% of cases are asymptomatic so most don't get tested as they don't feel ill. Nationally, comparing the weekly household infection survey to daily swab testing results suggests 2/3rds of cases were missed recently by swab testing. That means (crudely if the same applied, which it might not) the mortality rate from actual Yorkshire infections of maybe 300 per day at the end of July and 0.5 deaths now was maybe somewhere around 0.17% - marginally ahead of normal seasonal flu. (Note, media often mention 0.1% for flu but that is the global figure, including hotter countries. UK tends to be around 0.15%, though it varies considerably from year to year. 9 of the last 10 years have been above 0.1%.)

Yes, the historic flu figure might be higher if it were recorded like Covid has been.

I don't know everything and never pretended to!
It's probably as confusing as everything else is - you can have umpteen variants of what figures you want yet media just report the scary ones and don't explain them. UK cases jumped to 1522 today? No - not really. The headline might be misleading. 940 were REPORTED today that were actually tested in previous days and 249 were over a week old! This useful series of tweets shows:
Backlog in the number
By date they rose for 6 weeks but now look to be falling maybe?
But the hit rate has not risen much. Most rise is due to more testing
Regional hit rates in the last week
Falling - Yorkshire, Northwest, E.Midlands, W.Midlands. Flat - Northeast, East England. Up - London, Southeast, Southwest.
