The Occitanie Regional Health Agency communicates: "As we learned during the national press conference this evening, a first series of cards ranks the Lot department among the departments in red for an indicator of active circulation of the virus . As the Minister of Solidarity and Health reminded us, this card is completely provisional. It aims to give a first overview of the preparation of the deconfinement conditions. However, this classification has aroused strong and legitimate misunderstandings, in a department which is not at this stage among the most affected by the epidemic in progress in Occitania. To date, the number of hospitalizations for covid is down in this department (from 27 people on 04/22 to 15/30/04) and the number of people hospitalized in intensive care has gone from 9 on 04/22 to single person on April 30. This map was constructed at the national level from data directly consolidated by Santé Publique France. The evaluation of the active circulation of the virus is based on the calculation of a single indicator which compares the number of emergency visits for suspected coronavirus and the total number of emergency visits. These quantified indicators are provided by each of the hospitals across France. For the Lot, ARS Occitanie would like to point out that the number of emergency visits recorded represents a low volume (around one hundred emergency visits per day on average). A rapid analysis of these data concluded this evening that a number of samples recently taken by Lot's emergency services had led in recent weeks to overstate the percentage of visits to the emergency room for suspected Coronavirus compared to reality. The indicator used at the national level was probably skewed for the Lot department. The data imputed by error will be corrected in the hospitals concerned so that the indicator calculated for the Lot is the same as in the other departments. ARS Occitanie has contacted Santé Publique France so that the indicators used at the national level can evolve by taking into account several parameters to qualify the epidemiological situation of the departments.

Bah, Proust would have written that as a single sentence!
It looks like a high incidence of A&E covid testing but a low incidence of covid has led to the Lot being classified as a red département when it should be the other way round. Reassuring to know that they'll probably correct the error....

I’ve started on the VeloViewer square collecting. Something a bit different I can do locally during lockdown
