So looking to see how the 4 nations are doing with cases per 100,000
https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/cases
And taking the 6th, as the data for the 7th looks incomplete so far.
England - 7138 positive tests out of a population of
56,286,961 (source = wikipedia, 2019 estimate) = 12.68 per 100,000
Scotland - 949 positive tests out of a population of
5,463,300 (source = wikipedia, 2019 estimate) = 17.37 per 100,000
Wales - 130 positive tests out of a population of
3,153,000 (source = wikipedia, 2019 estimate) = 4.12 per 100,000
Northern Ireland - 763 positive tests out of a population of 1,893,700 (source = wikipedia, 2019 estimate) = 40.29 per 100,000
So Northern Ireland are making the biggest pigs ear of it. Scotland are in second place. England are doing considerably better than Scotland, and Wales are glad they managed to go so long without farcemasks. But as we saw from the grpahic above posted yesterday, its the south of Scotland that is really dragging the rest down with it. She's not doing very well is she?
