The Herald’s trusted and reliable reporting helping to to make sense of the world you live in? Well maybe not that one.

New cases down to only a fifth, deaths less than half, hospitals emptying, care homes protected!

Yes, the 7 day average for new cases is 543 down from 2 649 at the beginning of 2021. 7 day average for deaths, inevitably lagging but down at 21 from 55 on January 12th.

750 in hospital, down from 2 053 on January 22nd. 69 in ICU, down from 161 on January 21st.

28 deaths in care homes in week-ending28th February, down from 143 in week-ending 17th January.

  1. Quite a difference there in numbers of infection and deaths I hope it continues to drop. The media scaremongering and negative reporting is a disgrace. Those writing for these rags should hang their heads in shame for the harm that they do to Scotland.

  2. Of course, if they used the % of tests that would lead readers to a completely different conclusion.

    Which is, of course, why they don’t…2.6% positive today
