BREAKING: A "tidal wave" of flu infections has led to a 70% increase in hospital admissions in England in just seven days, the NHS has said.

Nanny would have us belive that there is a "tidal wave" of flu cases hitting her beloved NHS.
The claim that there has been a "tidal wave" of flu infections leading to a 70% increase in hospital admissions in England in just seven days is bollocks, and is not supported by the most recent data available.
According to recent NHS England reports, flu hospital admissions have indeed increased, but the specifics vary: An earlier report from NHS England indicated a significant rise in flu cases, with hospital admissions increasing by 40% in a week as of the week ending December 11, 2022, not 70%.
More current data from December 2024 shows that flu hospital admissions are at their highest level this winter, but without specifying a 70% increase in just seven days. For instance, the admission rate for flu was reported as 6.8 per 100,000 people in the week to December 31, up from 5.1 the previous week, indicating an increase but not to the extent of 70%.
Therefore, while flu cases and hospital admissions have notably increased, the specific claim of a 70% increase in just seven days does not align with the latest available data. It's important to check the most recent and reliable sources for the most accurate figures.
The lesson here is do not rust Nanny or the NHS!

🚨 NEW: The government is funding a new 'health MOT' in which the NHS will go into offices, pubs and building sites to weigh workers and measure their blood pressure to help prevent heart attacks and strokes

Gimmicks, instead of a route and branch overhaul of the failed NHS, will not save the NHS!
Despite there being a waiting list of around 7 million, the cretins running the NHS seem to think time and money is better spent on this crap.
The Telegraph reports that the NHS is to spend £14 million on a staffing budget for new departments focusing on diversity, inclusion and 'people', with hundreds of jobs.

How about you show some respect for the NHS.
Turning the NHS into a state religion will neither benefit the NHS, nor its patients!

It's been 6 months and one day since my last Covid vaccine
I'm over 50 (I know I don't look it!)
Tried to book appointment but Booking System tells me I can't
Please help me to do the right thing & get my next Covid vaccine thank you #CovidBooster
As I noted yesterday, there is a coordinated campaign by FAKE SAGE, certain sections of the media and political activists posing as doctors to force the government's hand into bringing in more restrictions.
I also noted that
"It is important to remember that those pushing for greater restrictions have a political agenda, they are using Covid as a cover to push that agenda!"
Right on cue, the GPs (backed by the partisan BMA) have upped the ante.
GPs are threatening to go on strike in protest at the government’s efforts to get them to see patients face to face. The British Medical Association says it has been “left with no alternative.”
It is remarkable that they fail to grasp that their job is to see patients.
The NHS is taking the piss out of those who fund it.
Its role is to protect us, not the other way round!
So long as the government doesn't buckle to this coordinated campaign, once the cases start to fall in the coming weeks these people will be finished!

The Spectator reports that in July, 45 per cent of patients succeeded in having a consultation with their GP on the same day that they made their appointment, while 24 per cent waited more than a week. These figures are a modest improvement on January last year, when 42 per cent had a same-day appointment and 30 per cent had to wait more than a week.
The difference hardly marks a sea change in efficiency. It is not as if GPs are having to see more patients than they were before the pandemic. On the contrary, the number of overall appointments fell from 27.2 million in January 2020 to 25.5 million in July this year
There is a limit to how long GPs can use Covid-19 as an excuse for refusing to see patients face-to-face. Other parts of society have largely returned to normal. Shops and restaurants no longer have to enforce social distancing. Even nightclubs are open.
Yet GP surgeries continue to operate as if we are still in the darkest depths of lockdown. Just 57 per cent of GPs consultations in July were held face-to-face — a little higher than the 47 per cent recorded in April last year but still far below the levels prior to the pandemic. In January 2020, four in five consultations were held face-to-face.
The NHS is exacerbating the problem by offering financial incentives to surgeries to hold certain numbers of consultations remotely.
During the depths of the pandemic being told to protect the NHS might have made some sense. However, the NHS was set up to protect and care for us, not the other way round (especially as we pay for it!).

As per Guido Fawkes:
Commenters on the NHS website are now being chastised for over-using capital letters. Presumably they’re shortly to rebrand as ‘the nhs’…
One co-conspirator was recently blocked from reviewing a hospital as, according to the NHS moderators:
“it contains capitalised words. On the internet this can be regarded as “shouting” and many people are offended by it. Please resubmit your review, and avoid over-using capital letters.”
I wonder if the NHS realises that its name is in capitals, as such will it ban itself?

The penny has finally dropped with Nanny that the prospect of being pinged by the NHS Covid app might prompt people to delete it.
As per Politico:
"One thing that is alarming the department of health is that members of the public will delete the NHS COVID app en masse when they realize so many people are testing positive and that contact isolation is continuing for most of the summer.
Playbook has already heard anecdotally of people deleting in fear that it will now only be a matter of time before they are pinged.
Which poses more questions for the PM today:
Does the government know how many people are deleting the app?
And does it have a plan to do anything about it?"
Better yet, don't download the app in the first place!

Act Local
Stay Local
Be Local
This is Nanny's "powerful" new message, as she brings in the big guns (the media, Dame Dick of The Yard et al) to reinforce her message.
Now that the pubs and restaurants are shut, Nanny can no longer blame them for the spread of Covid. As such, she has set her gimlet eye on supermarkets, the fresh air and human beings.
For you see ladies and gentlemen, in order to ensure that she gets no blame for the possible collapse of the NHS (now turned into a state religion by Nanny) she needs someone to blame.
The irony being, as Nick Robinson perfectly correctly states, is that most people are adhering to the rules:
Dull truth is that a startling number of people are following the rules to the best of their ability. Prof @ReicherStephen challenged us to "dramatically tell the stories of mundane adherence”. Can you help? What didn't you do? Who didn't you see? Where didn't you go? @BBCr4today
— Nick Robinson (@bbcnickrobinson) January 12, 2021
Be that as it may in the event the virus continues to do what it will inevitably do, Nanny will blame people for not following the rules.
Can you guess what Nanny will do then children?
Yes, that's right
She will impose even more futile rules for us to be accused of not following!
