We're publishing a guest post by our in-house doctor on the Daily Sceptic looking at the latest NHS data. Conclusion: Omicron hospital admissions in the community are declining and unlikely to result in severe COVID-19.
The Daily Sceptic is publishing a hospital situation report from its in-house doctor – and it's good news. Covid community admissions are falling in London and flatlining across the country. Omicron has peaked.
NHS England Medical Director Stephen Powis has claimed that the "overwhelming majority" of Covid ICU patients are unvaccinated. But is he 'doing a Pritchard' and using out-of-date data from July?
According to the Daily Sceptic's in-house doctor, there are half as many Covid in-patients today than there were this time last year, not 14 times as many as was claimed recently and Omicron is unlikely to change that.
We're publishing a second post on the Daily Sceptic – this one by a doctor – about the false claim by Amanda Pritchard that the no. of patients in hospital with Covid is 14 times greater than it was this time last year..
Amanda Pritchard, head of NHS England, claimed earlier today that the number of patients in English hospitals with COVID-19 is 14 times the number it was this time last year. Alarming if true, but it isn't. Not even close.
