Daily Covid Cases Fall by Nearly 40% in a Week – Eighth Day in a Row Cases Have Fallen, Week-on-Week
Britain’s Omicron wave continued to collapse today as coronavirus cases fell for the eighth day in a row and hospital admissions remained flat. MailOnline has more.
Another 109,133 people tested positive for the virus across the country in the last 24 hours, Government dashboard data shows, down 39% on the number a week ago.
It is the eight day in a row that new infections have fallen week-on-week and the lowest daily total in more than a fortnight.
Deaths – which are a lagging indicator of the outbreak – have been slowly creeping up in recent days with 335 more victims registered today.
It is unclear if reporting issues over the holidays are still at play, but the seven-day average number of Covid fatalities sits at 261 now compared to 99 a fortnight ago.
Meanwhile, latest hospital data shows there were 2,184 admissions for the virus on January 9th, up 5% compared to the previous. Daily admissions have fallen on three of the past seven days.
NHS leaders have voiced optimism that Omicron’s pressure on hospitals had already peaked and that the eight new Nightingale surge hubs will not be needed.
It came as the country’s largest symptom-tracking study also found that Britain’s Omicron outbreak was falling last week in all age groups and regions except the North East.
King’s College London researchers estimated the number of people falling ill with the virus each day plunged by 12%, with 183,000 symptomatic infections now occurring every day.

Stop Press: Construction workers are putting the finishing touches to the first of the NHS’s Covid surge ‘Hubs’, just as hospitalisations are beginning to fall across the country. The latest NHS England data now shows that more than 50% of hospital patients classified as having Covid are being treated for something else.

“Stop Press: Construction workers are putting the finishing touches to the first of the NHS’s Covid surge ‘Hubs’, just as hospitalisations are beginning to fall across the country. “
ROFL! Let me just recap my earlier observation:
The covid panic has been an object lesson, for those with their eyes open and brains unfogged by fear, of precisely how and why voluntary private action is better than state coercive action.
The latter is slow, unresponsive to new information, inflexible for particular circumstances, wide open to capture and manipulation by money and power interest groups.
The former is automatically tailored to individual needs and circumstances, allows prompt changes in response to new information, and is more diverse and harder for interest groups to directly manipulate.
Don’t laugh too soon about the NHS COVID-19 surge-hubs. The latest disease doing the rounds in China is related to Ebola.
The original variant of Ebola does not make a good bioweapon because it kills people too quickly to get spread throughout a population. When a person gets Ebola, they start to fall apart straight away.
But what is this new variant? Straight from a laboratory perhaps. And gain-of-functioned so that it is slower at killing people and therefore more efficient at contaminating a population.
Don’t laugh, because you can be assured they have something in mind for these surge hubs.
“because you can be assured they have something in mind for these surge hubs. “
Perhaps, but they didn’t for the Nightingales.
The ‘surge hubs’ were clearly a good use of money then! But the government is now so adicted to pissing away money that they no doubt won’t be bothered…
Why is the routine, and wholly natural, rise and fall of the incidence of common colds headline news?
Yes what the hell have cases got to do with anything?
Makes me want to pack my case and go to some sunny clime, but as I refuse to get needled I can’t go anywhere.
May as well test for dandruff for all the good it does. Or try this…
It could be worse.. 😉
I saw this month’s ago but it is still a belter.
Thank you for making me laugh today.
The word Nightingale will forever be synonymous with hugely expensive propaganda follies.
That’s great news – face nappies for kids and mandatory triple clot shots vindicated once again.
Something dodgy about the numbers in the latest Vaccine Surveillance report.
https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1046291/Vaccine-surveillance-report-week-2-2022.pdf
The totals in the tables on pages 39-41 don’t add up to the sum of all the cohorts for any age groups. For example, there’s 38,161 cases unaccounted for !
Currently there is no column for the triple jabbed which begs the question, are the missing numbers for the triple jabbed ?!?!?!?
This is seen for all age groups for cases, overnight hospital stays and deaths !!!

Just another weekday in the People’s Republic of Covidia.
Cases shot upwards, though now in decline, deaths now rising after a lag, but throughout the period the reported number of critical cases has declined, and is now at its lowest level since I started keeping an eye on it in the summer. Somehow cases are going from onset of symptoms and/or testing positive and then on to the grave without passing through the traditional interim of stage of being seriously ill inbetween. I’d say the omicron variant must be so deadly that it kills its hapless victims before the ICU staff can even power up the ventillator, but if that were the case there’d be no time lag between cases rising and deaths following suit.
I’m sure there’s a perfectly logical explanation, but damned if I can see it.
I’ve also noticed this in summer already: Sars-CoV2, the first virus which kills its victims without them becoming sick first. Probably causes spontaneous human combustion.
The obvious explanation is that the majority of so-called COVID deaths are just people who happen to die within 28 days of a positive Sars-CoV2 test for whatever reasons. Hence, rising number of so-called cases causes a delayed rise of so-called deaths as some of the people who tested positive die. But without a corresponding rise in people who are critically ill with COVID in between. Which – in turn – implies that the case numbers must be the same kind of bullshit as the death numbers.
COVID has really largely been an epidemic of statistics about one ever since the so-called second wave ended.
Dr Mike Yeadon and Reiner Füllmich: “The injections normally called Corona vaccines are designed to experiment on the human race and to find out what dosage of a yet unknown toxin is needed in order to kill people”. Since the mRNA gene serums were rolled-out in 2020 we have been involved in a global experiment. This experiment is geared towards depopulation. The main players in this experiment are Moderna, Johnson& Johnson and Pfizer/Biontech. One aspect of the trials they are running is to measure what level of toxin needs to be in a particular batch of gene serum, and how many of these batches will be needed, to kill-off their desired percentage of whatever local population they have targeted. Say they target Liverpool and decide that overall 40% of its population need to be euthanised. There will be some boroughs in this city in which they’ll decide that more need to be euthanised than in others. A borough with a high percentage of long-term unemployed will probably be targeted for a much higher percentage of euthanasia than a borough in which obedient academics and local authority members live. The correct percentages of euthanasia in the targeted… Read more »
Excellent piece. I trust Dr Yeadon and Reiner Fullmich. I also do not believe that “we” are winning, this is regrouping for the Davos Deviants. We are being duped in to believing that this horror story is over. This is well summarised in a piece at Off-Guardian.
I don’t think anyone on our side really understands the depth of the Deviants murderous intentions.

Interesting link – to summarise the new slogan of the day “learning to live with covid ” is designed to pacify the resistance but will actually entail continuous compulsory clot shots together with vax passports and face nappies as the best way to keep the “pandemic” in abeyance thus avoiding too many future lock downs.
“I don’t think anyone on our side really understands the depth of the Deviants murderous intentions.” Yes, a lot of common-sense people simply don’t get it. The Cabal have planned this for decades and they have no intention of rolling back to pre-2019 normality. None whatsoever. And their puppets in governments across the world, Johnson, Macron, Trudeau, Ardern, et al, all these and their compatriots have a big motivation for the Cabal to win. All these are well aware that if normality returns, they’ll be dragged to a Nuremberg type court and charged with very serious crimes against humanity. And there will be loud calls for them to be executed. Just a few minutes ago another commenter laughed at the government “needlessly” constructing NHS surge-hubs. I replied to him or her: Don’t laugh too soon about the NHS COVID-19 surge-hubs. The latest disease doing the rounds in China is related to Ebola.

Come on Daily Mail you’re almost there
‘Deaths – which are a lagging indicator of the outbreak – have been slowly creeping up in recent days with 335 more victims registered today.’
But how can deaths be increasing while occupied MV beds are falling and excess deaths have fallen and are around the 5-year average? For goodness’ sake, think about it.
Construction workers? Marquee erectors shirley?
There Are Now 365 Studies that Prove the Efficacy of Ivermectin and HCQ in Treating COVID-19. Any hospital administrator who mandated the shots to employees to comply with the government mandate for Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement and who refused to allow alternative treatments to be tried, doctors who pushed their patients to take the EUA drug without giving fully informed consent, anyone who forcefully administered the shot, the AMA, AAP, Boards of Health, CDC, FDA, NIH, WHO, scientists who participated in the development, Big Pharma (Pfizer, Moderna, J&J, Astra Zeneca, et. al.), anyone who pushed the sick into nursing homes resulting in deaths, all must be arrested, prosecuted, tried and if found guilty sentenced to prolonged imprisonment and fines or death for intentional homicide. Get your ivermectin before it is too late! https://ivmpharmacy.com
About the rising death figures. It has been widely reported that 25-30% of cases in hospital are of people who came in for other reasons (e.g. stroke or heart attack) are the tested and found to “have covid” are thus recorded as “covid cases in hospital”. If these people sadly, die within 28 days, they are recorded as such. Probably nothing to do with Covid but recorded as such
A little commented on report by the CDC had 63% of ICU covid patients as extremely obese.
Where is the equivalent breakdown of UK ICU patients?
Vaccine adverse events reaches a million in the USA. Some believe the underreporting factor in the USA is 41. Deaths post vaxx over 20,000. Cdc VAERS, MHRA yellow card reporting system.
