[1/14] 19,795 new #covid19uk positive tests reported today (22-Apr).
Week-on-week comparisons won't work again until Tuesday now due to bank holiday weekend. Rolling average continues to drop.
[2/14] Chart to show England positive tests (as of 22-Apr) by breakdown of first infection events and possible reinfection events.
Possible reinfections were added to the data from 31-Jan and the rolling average vs. total tests is currently about 12%.
[3/14] Animated chart to show LFD-only positives being either converted into PCR confirmed positives or removed due to negattive confirmation, over the last 14 days of reports.
[4/14] Pivot table of daily changes to LFD Only and LFD Confirmed by PCR figures to see if we can identify where LFDs are now being removed due to negative follow-up PCRs.
[5/14] England positive tests by type of test used. Version with the rolling average percentage of tests from LFD.
[6/14] England positive tests by type of test, percentage view to help see change in proportions.
[7/14] Longer term view. 19,795 new #covid19uk positive tests reported today (22-Apr). This brings the rolling average by specimen date (allowing 4 days for lag) to 27,201, equivalent to around 02-Aug (i.e. 256 days ago), a reduction of 12439 (31%) in the last week.
[8/14] Longer term charts for England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
[9/14] Closer look at the latest 45 days, with today's added numbers highlighted in yellow. Individual nations and animated England charts further down the thread.
[10/14] Separate charts for England (15832) Scotland (3093) Wales (163) and Northern Ireland (707). Note the different scales. Also on certain days the specimen-date data for Scotland/Wales/NI doesn't get updated so the yellow bars may be mising or include multiple day's numbers.
[11/14] Animated chart to show how the #covid19uk positive tests by specimen date have been contributed to by reports over the last 7 days. Note this just includes England numbers as other nations don't always publish their specimen date numbers every day.
[12/14] And England regions, starting with North West, North East, Yorkshire & Humber and West Midlands. Again, note the different scales.
[13/14] Plus East Midlands, East of England, South East and South West. Again, note the different scales.
[14/14] And finally, London.
