General notes of interest and moans
I mean seriously, leak the next lock down to the press but delay the press conference repeatedly because you are still working out the details. Help me.

It is extremely likely that we will see 1000s of COVID19 deaths in England over the next few months (first in the North, but then spreading to the rest of the country). Try to work from home as much as possible, avoid crowds (particularly indoors), wear a mask and stay safe.

This is an absolutely amazing bit of data journalism, very beautiful. The @FT traces the Covid-19 pandemic with charts, maps and graphics to understand its scale and impact https://t.co/BiNHNtMXBj. Highly recommend you take a look.

This is a chart of daily COVID-19 admissions to hospital in two NHS regions. As you can see the hospital admissions are now on par as at the peak of the initial wave. This is still below the peak admission rate in London which was ~150 a day in April compared to the around 30. pic.twitter.com/Kj9nlnaMVX

I am still, after a day, absolutely astounded that a database was not being used by Test and Trace in the UK. Even SQLite would have done the trick. Excel just isn't the right tool.
— Daniel Brewer (@danbrewer) October 6, 2020
When I first heard that cases were missing I thought “can’t be an Excel problem, the rows run out at 1,048,576 which is bigger than even total cases”.
— Matt Parker (@standupmaths) October 5, 2020
I never thought they’d have a case per COLUMN. Unbelievable. And yes: Excel columns end at 16,384 aka “XFD”. https://t.co/To9b4qIuzD
Dr @DanBrewer, Dr @ValHaberland , Dr @DavidCWedge and Dr Dan Woodcock are using machine learning techniques to develop a new way to classify prostate cancer. They will separate the aggressive ‘tigers’ from the ‘pussycats’. @uniofeastanglia @OfficialUoM @UniofOxford pic.twitter.com/vQx4nrckPh
