Note: These are the stats as of 2 pm yesterday. In order to make this blog as up-to-date as possible, I will in future attempt to publish on the afternoon that the UK stats are published each day. That means I need two blogs today in order to catch up and not miss a day.

The UK Government continue to regard themselves as having led a successful campaign against the virus This despite all the evidence suggesting otherwise The death rate continues to rise, whilst the PM tells us that the peak has been reached Meanwhile, there are now over 3 million confirmed cases of Covid-19 worldwide In the UK there are 171,253 confirmed cases But, this excludes all the people who have not been tested and have the virus In particular this means that older people in care homes, those most at risk of dying, are not being counted And, in case we forget (the media have moved on) despite the claps and the charity singles health workers continue to work without adequate PPE And the result of this is that more and more of them are contracting the virus and a small but significant number of them are dying The UK government, under some pressure, has finally agreed to include all deaths in the daily totals. UK total yesterday was 26,771

Panorama exposes Government failings over Covid-19 PM says other countries could learn from the UK ONS  figures suggest at least 22% of deaths not in official figures Leaked report shows that Government were warned of pandemic and chose to ignore it  Over 3 million people worldwide have the virus It is likely that over 27,000 people in the UK have died from Covid-19 "Current success"? - this is the way the Tories are spinning their undoubted mishandling of the crisis. From ignoring their own Operation Cygnus recommendations to invest in PPE, to following a herd immunity strategy when no vaccine was available, to seemingly not quite understanding that The WHO is an international health organisation not a past-its-best rock group, everything the Government has done points to major inadequacies in their preparation and approach. Under normal circumstances being incompetent in Government is serious and it can cost lives, but on this occasion having advance war

There are now a lot of statistics flying about and this is causing a lot of confusion. Let me try to pick through this. The Government use deaths in hospital only. These are issued on a daily basis but are not, for technical reasons, the number of deaths in the last 24 hours as they have been widely reported in the press. The figure as of yesterday, today's figure has not been put on their website, is 20,732. The figure does not include deaths in care homes or deaths at home. Every Tuesday the ONS release data on place of death. Last week that data indicated that around 20% of deaths from Covid-19 were not occurring in hospitals. Adding that proportion to the hospital figure gives a total of 24,710. Meanwhile, the FT using daily death certificate data plus a model based on excess deaths compared to the previous 5 years, give us a figure of 41,102. Total deaths from Covid-19, United Kingdom Which of these figures is correct? None of them. The Government figure clear
