Anecdotally, I’m also hearing more & more stories of people in my circle testing positive.

And also hospitals wards with outbreaks.

So, if you’ve relaxed your precautions in recent months, now would be a good time to up the ante again.

FFP masks. Ventilation. Air filtration.

…but with the XFG “Stratus” variant growing strongly and accounting for 34% of sequenced samples across the UK as of early June (almost certainly higher by now), I think there’s a very good chance we’re heading into a summer wave…

For more information about the detrimental long-term impacts of repeated Covid infections on the brain, please take a peek at my X/Twitter thread below where I’ve collated a tiny fraction of the hundreds of studies on this.

And I'd be interested to know if ONS will revise prior years with any new method?

In particular the current model's estimate for 2024 proved to be simply wrong (the data point in red, highlighted).

Fyi @catinthehat.bsky.social

Try changing the search filter to search under: ‘Channel’. When I do that, it pops up straight away.

I appear to also be blocked having liked @catinthehat.bsky.social 's post! Hahaha. Grifters don't take criticism well. 😜🤣

He’s blocked me too even though I’ve never interacted with him. He had me blocked even before I re-posted your reply.

Indeed. I wrote to @mrjamesob.bsky.social about this too.

I really hope he puts out a correction.

Please can you elaborate on why you think this would not be the norm?

It is in line with data from other countries - eg. the Canada Long Covid study below which showed that around 80% of those currently suffering from LC had had symptoms for more than 6 months:

This is the data for 3-17 year olds from the ONS survey (released in April 2024).

Feel free to check the raw data for yourself at the link below (see tab 1):

www.ons.gov.uk/file?uri=/pe...

Again, if you’d read the chart properly, you would see that the data source is clearly labelled.

As is the fact that the charts were produced by me.

No mystery here.

No, I really don’t get what your issue is. Other than you’ve been exceedingly aggressive for no apparent reason.

I have provided the link to the raw data.

I have told you *I* produced the chart directly from the raw data.

Please do enlighten me as to what else you need?
