      The son said/claimed that his father in his 70's had died in hospital of the Omicron variety of covid and the media then went on to make that into the 'first' death with the new variety in the country. The NHS have subsequently came out and said that there had been no deaths in the area of the new variety, so the claim was untrue.

            Do we still think it is only the unvaccinated in hospitals?

                  It is three weeks old, but then it is verified data - not the sort of thing we are getting on the news "well my granny's sister in law's best friend says that everyone in her local hospital is unvaccinated"

                      Those charts are not much different to the way the FTSE has performed over that period - except the FTSE has been much more volatile in the shorter periods as political and economic events affect it for a while.

                      e.g. it dropped drastically pre Brexit and soared again after the vote. It dropped to an almost 5 year low last year and has soared to its highest level since Covid and almost to its second highest ever.

                      Don't ask me why :nonofinger: as it's a mystery to most people and especially the successive governments!

                      I've been trying to understand it for over 50 years :scratch: :old:. Although I did predict the housing price crash in the early 90's.

                        They said the numbers would get worse, we have 12.943 new cases.
                        Lisboa & Vale De Tejo lead with 6519 casos
                        Next is The North with 3796
                        Then Central with 1527
                        Madeira with 382
                        Algarve with 330
                        Alentejo with 316
                        and lastly The Açores with 73
                        Even so, again our hospitalisations 864 (-29) and ICU confinements 149 (-1) went down.
                        Deaths were 11. Lisbon & VDT 2, The North 6, Central 2 and Alentejo 1.
                        Sadly it will not improve till the New Year and beyond is over. :sad:
