VACCINES have reduced waves of Covid deaths to mere ripples - despite a spike in the number of cases reported, according to the data.
And people aged 54 and under make up 60 per cent of virus patients admitted to English hospitals this time around - compared with just 22 per cent during the winter wave. So far, the peak of the third wave was reached on July 22, when 699 received mechanical ventilation. 39,906 new positive tests were received two days ago.during the first wave peaked on April 8 2020, when 1,075 people were recorded to have died. 5,120 positive tests were recorded that day.
The number peaked at 4,579 on January 12 this year - the highest point of the second wave. 49,367 people tested positive for the virus that day.

The demographic is different."Then we have people in their 40s and 50s rather than the very old people we saw in previous waves. We had six pregnant ladies a couple of weeks ago. It's a whole new ball game.
