A further 10 people have died and 425 people have tested positive for coronavirus, Public Health Wales (PHW) said on Tuesday.

It means a total of 1,640 people in Wales have died with Covid-19 since the beginning of the pandemic.

The new cases take the total of people to test positive in Wales to 26,872.

The total number of people tested in Wales is 565,982, with 539,110 testing negative. It said 10,204 tests were carried out on Monday.

Of the new cases, there were 44 in Cardiff, 40 in Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wrexham and Flintshire and 33 in Swansea.

There were 14 in Neath Port Talbot, 19 in Bridgend, 21 in Gwynedd, 16 in Denbighshire, 10 in Conwy and Blaenau Gwent.

Other counties reported fewer than 10 cases, and 103 cases were resident outside Wales - which is partly explained by students seeking tests in the towns where they are now studying, Public Health Wales said.       https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-51888681

I'm not sure I understand these figures and their relevance Steve.
Each time new cases are announced on a daily basis the numbers are added to the ongoing total of ****per 100,000.
Unless the population is static and at exactly 100,000 surely it must be incorrect?

The second thing is comparison figures with those issued elsewhere.For example, yesterday you  put the number of cases at 813.1 per 100,000 in Conwy. The national news was quoting city hotspots at around the 450 per 100,000 which are half the figures for Conwy and yet they are the supposed danger areas.Are the Conwy figures not total cases YTD and the those quoted on the news for Manchester , Liverpool etc current active cases?

On Monday you published figures for Conwy that show on a daily basis the number of new cases as 4, or 3.4 per 100,000 population. Surely that figure is considerably more relevant than the 813 as it shows the likelyhood of being in contact with someone with the virus.Assuming those that test positive quarantine themselves as directed aren't the odds of close contact with anyone with the virus extremely small and that if individuals, report for testing when symptoms show and we all take the extra precaution of wearing masks and keeping a safe distance we should not have to worry too much?

[SteveH]

I post the information from our local papers plus the daily Public Health Wales figures hoping they would be helpful to the Conway
community, perhaps time to stop ?
