Having see results elsewhere I'm not surprised - my area hasn't had a death in hospital since July 3 so we're doing okay.
Plus the UK just cut 5,000 deaths off our total because our government is incompetent and placed everyone with a positive test who died on the list - those 5,000 died of other causes, sometimes months after.
We are seeing an uptick in infections, but they come from community testing rather than hospital testing so we are picking up mostly mild cases now.
