Cambon Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 1 hour ago, Ramseyboi said: IOM bank closed again for “cleaning” When is this madness going to end? What possible difference do they think closing early to clean is going to make? Can I claim back from them any money I intended to bank in there and am now likely to spend in the reopened pigeon? Surely the days of deep cleans every time someone in a building tests positive are long gone? I don’t get it u less they are actually trying to close all branches by stealth? Rumour I heard years ago now, was that RBS wanted to pull out of here lock, stock and barrel. They closed Coutts and moved the business. Closed Nat West. Closed RBS. Closed most IOMB branches. And, I have heard that the Isle of Man Bank trading name is up for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This time, I cannot reconcile it. It no longer makes sense. Total cases investigated has only gone up by 85. Good to see see so many recoveries though.

Is there a simple graphical format an idiot such as myself could follow depicting your timeline, the factual timeline? Thanks The information to noise ratio does not warrant a reply.

Annoymouse Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I wasn’t able to get hold of any LFT tests again today, are you actually supposed to queue up first thing in these places just to get hold of some?Tried Ramsey town hall and Parliament St Lloyds today, neither had any in stock, this was after I saw a post on FB this morning to say some have been delivered. Oh well, day 8 with a slight headache, slightly sore throat and slight chest pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don't you just admit your models are a load of made up bollocks and your predictions are utter shite? Mystic Meg could make more accurate forecasts than your models. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

immortalpuppet Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) I tried looking at the model on Google docs but it’s all Greek to me. Today is day 34 if June 26th was day 0 or whatever. The request was genuine to see if the modelling is matching up to the reported stats. Part of the reason for my curiosity is around the shift to LFT and people either succumbing to symptoms and riding it out without testing as they don’t want to SI or they use an LFT pathway without calling 111 so they don’t become a statistic on the dashboard. With the above, projected hospital admissions may be one of the only visible markers if that’s such a thing.

And whats worse no credible explanation that stands up to scrutiny. Its almost like a hot potato that nobodys willing to take on board . But yes great to see the recovery numbers .

the stinking enigma Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 To get the figures right now would be like to admit it was possible to get them right. No matter what, they wont give correct figures, think fifezer. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Mexico Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Today's bulletin from the Wonderful World of Manx Government Maths: 'Investigated cases': 3842 - 3758 = 84 (Increase in cases) Active cases: 2020 - (2474 - (1819 - 1280) [Recovered]) = 2020 - 2474 + 539 = 84 (New cases before taking off recoveries) Official new cases = 140 As the last few days the investigated and active case increases agree - they then produce a figure for new cases that is this time a fair bit higher. The 'recovered' cases don't make any sense either. There was a bit of a backlog but not this high. I can only assume that they have arbitrarily decided to change the recovered period from 14 days to 10 or less, despite no change in clinical evidence. The increase in tests (96001 - 95308 = 693), is similar to what we have seen recently, though below capacity. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No "The COVID 19 Daily Update Dashboard is updated at 3pm each day." But in any case the differences between two sets of figures in the series should be consistent if you're just looking at the changes.

That was my thought last week, the cases are dropping off a lot quicker than they went on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
