My latest take on the Covid situation in England... and what we could do to reduce future waves

https://christinapagel.substack.com/p/the-latest-on-englands-big-jn1-covid

Looking at 2022's big waves suggest an infection peak next week.

Be careful out there - there is SO MUCH infection around.

The latest on England's big JN.1 Covid wave - unlikely to have peaked yet...

As we went into Christmas 2023, the ONS Winter Infection Survey (based on thousands people testing on lateral flow tests regardless of symptoms) showed that we were in the biggest wave England had seen since the summer of 2022. Neither the ONS survey nor the UKHSA published data updates over the Christmas period, but we do have some new information to inform what might happen over the next few weeks.
