You mean only in the UK, rest of the world works different. In your theory monday would be the highest number reported, not the lowest. Use your brain or is it oxygen starved?
what you actually find. is that even in america they have delays too.
the initial daily numbers are not the full numbers. because some places have delayed reporting.
heck even CDC provisional numbers say its upto 2-4 weeks delayed
when there is a truly clear fuly tested and scanned and diagnosed death. easy..
but when its more complex and when the morgues are over run it takes longer.
so what you think might be near 100k deaths due to covid in usa.. is actually much higher.
..
in the UK the hospital numbers are quite high percentage accurate reporting daily. but its the stuff like people dying in residential homes that take the most time and cause the most delay in reporting.
and its not all registered on a monday. but they do hope to catch up on all delays before the following saturday to avoid having double piles of backdated stuff the week after that. causing more instability of number reporting.
UK have been clear about this.
here is one example:
"The figures were collated between 5pm on 19 May and 5pm on 20 May, but due to the need to inform relatives and authenticate reports, many of the deaths occurred earlier than this period. It is also very likely that some deaths which did occur during these 24 hours — and before — have not yet been recorded, normally for the same reasons.
The figures do not include those who have died from the virus outside of hospital, nor those where covid-19 has not been specifically recorded as a cause.
Due to late reporting, hospital deaths data is only considered robust until 15 May."
which is why they dont look at daily numbers as is. but concentrate on the 7 day average. to see the impact
compared to previous weeks.
once they add in the numbers from the other deaths in other settings(home/residential care).
message to certain idiot
the stats are underselling the deaths. they would rather put low numbers they are sure of first. and then become more accurate later by adding more when they have been authenticated and confirmed. .. meaning they dont just throw in as much as they can first.
here it is laid out for you
the top right. the blue line is the underselling numbers published publicly. where numbers are confirmed. in blue
however the ONS that double checks and authenticates later shows a new number for that same week. much higher.
what you need to realise is that the numbers are not exaggerated higher then usual. but more lower in the initial reports because they prefer to have less but confirmed.. and not more but unconfirmed
you will realise that i told you this months ago in another topic.
its not new news.
hospitals are not inflating numbers.
have a nice day
