29th April 2020 - Fiddling with Numbers

Thought for the day :"Bards Guild or Thieves’ Guild ? Hmm Will have to weigh up the Prose and Cons"

Office of National Statistics 




So, USA goes over the millions cases today, and over 58,000 deaths. 
However, percentages are still showing that we are not really doing any better, and the figures coming out now for Care Home deaths are saddening. I really do not like the images you see for the Care industry where we have so many old and weak who are now being cared for by teams of people in masks and gloves... It has to be - but what a sad way to end your existence. 


Case Population
World 6.95% 0.003%
USA 5.76% 0.018%
Spain 10.26% 0.051%
Italy 13.58% 0.045%
France 14.02% 0.035%
UK 13.39% 0.033%
Germany 3.95% 0.008%

Deaths shown as percentage of Cases reported and of population...
Still great discrepancies - but more useful than just the bold figures I think. If USA were running at the rate that is reported in the UK they would be on 107,000 deaths.  Of course they are ten days behind us and opening up the economy so watch this space.

May need to brush up my keyboards skills...



In other news - need to get back into the studio today to get the next few vids ready.


But we can come up to date today with a little tale of a small creature.. who became O So Famous..

And so - off we go again
Cheers !
