I can see you aren't a statistician.
You can never take a 1 day increase and quote that.
So you cunningly use 2 days and use percentages for an increase of 268.
1 May - 1,639
2 May - 945
3 May - 793
4 May - 679
5 May - 685
6 May - 947
There also tends to be a slight increase at the end of every week but the overwhelming trend is down. Good attempt and an immediate upvote from people desperate to disagree with me. |
I see you've also been cunning and chosen to go back six days rather than five. |  | | |

Couldn't be bothered to type anything more but the stats are there on the Wiki link, where cases increased from the 27th April to the 1st May. But as I mentioned they do seem to increase later on in the week.
How about the number of active cases. Pretty steep decline here as well.

….Belgium (who are the only other country reporting deaths in a way comparable to ours) have a far higher mortality and infection rate than we do, and they are allowing 4 visitors to households and shops are reopening.
Actually. [Post edited 6 May 2020 15:37]

Belgium count all deaths that might involve CV19. UK only counts those who tested positive. Once you strip out that difference, Belgium is below UK, even adjusted for population.
France and Spain report per UK. Italy numbers are a bit light in comparison. |  | | |

We don't know that yet. All we have is a number produced by the ONS under a certain set of criteria, which is greater than the numbers published by other countries using their own sets of criteria. If all the sets of criteria were identical, a direct comparison could be made. Otherwise, it's a rough guide to relative severity at best.
Also worth bearing in mind we have one of the largest populations in Europe (fourth, behind Russia, Germany and France). |
Probably the largest per sq.mile / kilometre |  | | |

….mentioned on the death cert, whether it's the cause of death or not.
The same as Belgium.
France only report if it the cause of death.
You didn't comment on the fact that Belgium are easing lockdown despite their mortality and infection rates? |  |

Belgium is "including deaths in care homes that are suspected, not confirmed, as Covid-19 cases", according to this, which I think is different to the UK.

That just isn't the case linhdi.

If that was the point the stats started being taken in that way, which I assume is what that's saying, would they have made the figures yet given the two-week time lag? Not claiming to be an expert on this by any means, but had read in several places that Belgium's figures were unrepresentatively high due to the way they were collating figures on care homes. | | | |
