For my first foray into healthcare data, I& #39;ve been taking a look at the detailed NHS data up to 01-Oct released today. What I found interesting is the context of the overall non-covid numbers also reported. So apparently in the South West only 0.3% beds are covid patients 01-Oct.

And the same for mechanical ventilator beds:

This is the top 30 trusts by what % of their beds are for confirmed covid patients. I& #39;m not sure how much this would be affected by what hospitals specialise in.

And again for mechanical ventilator beds:

I& #39;m sure you& #39;ll let me know your thoughts. As usual, I& #39;m trying to find alternative views of the data rather than what& #39;s already published on the gov& #39;t dashboards.
