YOUR LOCAL COUNCILLOR UPDATE

22/1/2021

Some positive news for you all in so much as Lockdown 3 is having an impact of our rates of infection (today’s figures), which has dropped across the district over the last seven days to 284/100,00 from 344 last week.  This is a welcomed improvement and demonstrates that we must keep up our resolve and momentum in fighting this virus.  In addition the over 60’s day rate is down to 218/100,000 (271 last week) (with 91 cases over the last seven days), which when compared to other districts in Warwickshire for all ages is Nuneaton & Bedworth 417/100,000, North Warwickshire 403/100,000, Warwick 292/100,000 and Rugby 403/100,000.  So Stratford and Warwick Districts have the lowest case rates.
 
The situation regarding SWFT Hospital Beds has improved slightly with 114 (130) confirmed cases of COVID-19 but there are 7 (4) patients in ICU (figures in brackets are from 15 Jan).  The capacity remains the same at 10% and there are 44% of beds occupied by non-Covid patients.
 
The cumulative deaths across Stratford District from the start of this second wave (28th August 2020) have sadly increased by a further 20 to 72 with 20 occurring in care homes, 47 in hospital and five at home, out of a total of 526 all cause deaths in the district for this new second wave period.
 
The cumulative total of deaths across Warwickshire for Wave 2 has now jumped to 306 from 245 within a total of 2359 all cause deaths.  The cumulative total of Covid-19 deaths in Stratford district is 240 since the start of the pandemic and in Warwickshire 906; over the same period there have been 5809 non Covid-19 related deaths in Warwickshire.
 
The new locally led Lateral Flow Testing facility for people without coronavirus symptoms in Stratford at the Courtyard Theatre has now has carried out 3219 tests with 11 positive results.
 
The vaccine rollout is continues to gear up momentum and across my division is being delivered from Wellesbourne at Hastings House Medical Centre, Southam Clinic and Stratford Hospital. WCC is also involved with the setting up of a mass vaccination site which will be located in Stoneleigh in due course and will complement the vaccination facility in Birmingham at Millennium Point which is being offered as an earlier alternative option.
 
Roving teams are carrying out vaccinations in care homes amongst staff and residents and it is anticipated to have all care homes in Warwickshire vaccinated by the end of the month, as this is a priority area.
 
Best wishes for the weekend, stay warm and please keep safe, take care and stay home.

Two weeks into Lockdown 3 and figures released this morning show that for the SDC area the seven day rate/100,000 is now showing signs of levelling – 344.4/100,000 (338.2 last week) and the over 60’s day rate is 271/100,000 (278.2 last week) (with 113 cases over the last seven days), which when compared to other districts in Warwickshire for all ages is Nuneaton & Bedworth 497.4/100,000, North Warwickshire 386.1/100,000, Warwick 324.2/100,000 and Rugby 527.8/100,000. 
 
The situation regarding SWFT Hospital Beds has continued to increase which is not unexpected with 130 (107) confirmed cases of COVID-19 and 4 (5) patients in ICU (figures in brackets are from 8 Jan).  The capacity has consequently decreased to 10% from 12%, inspite of a small increase of ‘open’ beds up 369 to from 364.
 
The cumulative deaths across Stratford District from the start of this second wave (28th August 2020) have sadly increased by a further 11 to 52 with 12 occurring in care homes, 36 in hospital and four at home, out of a total of 484 all cause deaths in the district for this new second wave period.
 
The cumulative total of deaths across Warwickshire for Wave 2 has now jumped to 245 from 202 within a total of 2101 all cause deaths.  The cumulative total of Covid-19 deaths in Stratford district is 220 since the start of the pandemic and in Warwickshire 845; over the same period there have been 5607 non Covid-19 related deaths in Warwickshire.
 
The new locally led Lateral Flow Testing facility for people without coronavirus symptoms opened successfully this week in Stratford at the Courtyard Theatre next week and to date has carried out 1201 tests with one positive result.
 
The vaccine rollout is continues to gear up momentum and across my division is being delivered from Wellesbourne at Hastings House Medical Centre, Southam Clinic and Stratford Hospital. WCC is also involved with the setting up of a mass vaccination site which will be located in Stoneleigh in due course and will complement the vaccination facility in Birmingham at Millennium Point which is being offered as an earlier alternative option for residents.
 
Roving teams are carrying out vaccinations in care homes amongst staff and residents and it is anticipated to have all care homes in Warwickshire vaccinated by the end of the month, as this is a priority area.
 
Best wishes for the weekend, stay warm and please keep safe, take care and stay home.

In line with national figures our rates of infection have continued to rise since my last update on Monday 4th Jan and figures released this morning show that for the SDC area the seven day rate/100,000 is now 338.2/100,000 and the over 60’s day rate is 278.2/100,000 (with 116 cases over the last seven days), which when compared to other districts in Warwickshire for all ages is Nuneaton & Bedworth 485.8/100,000, North Warwickshire 455,1/100,000, Warwick 392.3/100,000 and Rugby 489.3/100,000.  The big jump in cases suggests there may have been a slight time lag in getting the positive case figures with the New Year bank holiday.
 
The situation regarding SWFT Hospital Beds has also increased with 107 (79) confirmed cases of COVID-19 and 5 (3) patients in ICU (figures in brackets are from 4 Jan).  However, the capacity has increased to 12% from 9% on 4 January, which also reflects an increase of ‘open’ beds up to 369 from 286 earlier in the week, which is welcome.
 
The cumulative deaths across Stratford District from the start of this second wave (28th August 2020) have sadly increased by a further seven since reporting on Monday to 41 with 11 occurring in care homes, 27 in hospital and three at home, out of a total of 440 all cause deaths in the district for this new second wave period.
 
The cumulative total of deaths across Warwickshire for Wave 2 has now jumped to 202 from 173 since reporting on Monday (which is likely to include some Christmas/New Year lag time) for a total of 1939 all cause deaths.  The cumulative total of Covid-19 deaths in Stratford district is 209 since the start of the pandemic and in Warwickshire 802; over the same period there have been 5485 non Covid-19 related deaths in Warwickshire.
 
A new locally led Lateral Flow Testing facility for people without coronavirus symptoms is opening in Stratford at the Courtyard Theatre next week, with the aim of protecting those most at risk, using rapid testing to speed up the process. 
 
The vaccine rollout has now started and is increasing in GP practices together with the Hospital sites; and WCC is involved with the setting up of a mass vaccination site which will be located in Stoneleigh in due course and will compliment another vaccination facility in Birmingham at Millennium Point. 24,000 vaccinations will have been delivered by the end of this week in Warwickshire and the county is doing ‘quite well’ at a local level than some other counties. 
 
Essentially the three hospital hubs will be using the Pfizer vaccine and local GP’s will be administering the OxfordAZ vaccine.  Roving teams are carrying out vaccinations in care homes amongst staff and residents and it is anticipated to have all care homes in Warwickshire vaccinated by the end of the month, as this is a priority area.
 
The NHS has the capacity locally to deliver 47,000 vaccines per week and the plan is for all the over 50 and clinically vulnerable to be vaccinated by the end of March. 
 
There are currently around 10,300 children still in school across the county representing those who are either vulnerable or children of key workers across Nursery, Primary and Secondary facilities and WCC is working with all schools on establishing Lateral Flow Testing for pupils.
 
Best wishes for the weekend, stay warm and please keep safe, take care and stay home.
 
Kind regards

Happy New Year everyone and I hope you have all had the best possible Christmas break in view of all the restrictions. I thought it would be helpful to provide an update on the cases situation since last providing an update on 21 December – ie two weeks ago.
 
As expected the rates of infection have increased significantly since my last update and figures released this morning show that for the SDC area the seven day rate/100,000 is now 237.5/100,000 and the over 60’s day rate is 167.9/100,000 (with 70 cases over the last seven days), which when compared to other districts in Warwickshire for all ages is Nuneaton & Bedworth 369.6/100,000, North Warwickshire 289.6/100,000, Warwick 284/5/100,000 and Rugby 370.9/100,000. 
 
The situation regarding SWFT Hospital Beds has increased with 79 (72) confirmed cases of COVID-19 and 5 (2) patients in ICU (figures in brackets are from 21 Dec).  However, the capacity has decreased slightly to 9% from 10% on 21 December which also reflects the reduction of ‘open’ beds which is currently 286.  Back in early November the number of ‘open’ beds were 424.
 
The cumulative deaths across Stratford District from the start of this second wave (28th August 2020) have sadly increased by a further twelve over the last two weeks to 34, with 11 occurring in care homes, 20 in hospital and three at home, out of a total of 405 all cause deaths in the district for this new second wave period.
 
The cumulative total of deaths across Warwickshire for Wave 2 has now tragically jumped to 173 from 119 two weeks ago for a total of 1822 all cause deaths.  The cumulative total of Covid-19 deaths in Stratford district is 202 since the start of the pandemic and in Warwickshire 773; over the same period there have been 5397 non Covid-19 related deaths in Warwickshire.
 
Locally led testing for people without coronavirus symptoms is rolling out across Warwickshire with the aim of protecting those most at risk, using rapid testing to speed up the process.  A new hub was launched in Leamington Spa before Christmas and we are awaiting details of a site in Stratford-upon-Avon.
 
The good news is that Warwickshire NHS Trusts are amongst the first to receive the Oxford Astra Zeneca vaccine today which will complement the roll out of the Pfizer vaccine which commenced over three weeks ago from hospital sites.  This means the roll out of the OxfordAZ vaccine is also starting this week into GP practices and Care Homes. Whilst excellent progress is being made on the roll out of the vaccine, it’s important to remember that the vaccine will not start to have any real impact until Easter.
 
Thank you to everyone for all your support, but most important of all please keep safe and take care.
