The day 1 target was not met.

The 120,000 tests carried out figure that Matt Hancock quoted included 40,000 in the post to people.

The definition of "tests carried out" was changed to include tests "probably about to happen in the next few days".

This is pure politics.

We started from a bad place and a flawed strategy. Instead of saying we got that wrong but we have worked bloody hard to test 80,000 people the message was spun to hit an arbitrary target.

What for? How does that help fight the spread of the virus and reduce deaths?

More or Less. Fill up on some real data rather than through a filter.

If say 100,000 tests are avaliable and only 80,000 are taken why is that?

Are people not booking them even though they are avaliable?

Surely you can't expect some to turn up at everyones door step. You have to go where the test is.

Not sure what you are saying.

The government have stated that 100,000 tests were carried out on their target date. Not available. Not the total capacity. Carried out.

Only about 80,000 were carried out.

Did you listen to the program?

It's alrwady been stated sending out a test is the standard way of counting postal tests.

Why would you ask for a postal test if you have no intention of using it and returning it?

If you don't use it you are wasting it for some who wants to use it.

"

It's already been stated that sending a test in the post is the "standard" way of counting it as being taken?

By whom and when?

They've also managed to miss the target for the last four days.

Hmmm.

If my "cheque is in the post" it certainly has not been cashed.

You didn't listen to the program then. You just made something up to suit your view

Which program is that, another biased BBC one full of Labour supporters?

I watch the daily updates and it was sated on there as to how the postal tests are counted.

As for the daily tests the availability is there and it's up to the public to use it.

If people don't use the system the numbers fall short. It's not hard to work out is it!

Why have the number of daily tests been under 100,000 for the previous 4 days?

Infrastructure has ben created and operating.

Capacity is available.

Criteria to be able to book a test has been widened.

(a quick check on the online booking portal earlier today showed availability for home test and visiting a regional test centre)

So whats the "fly in the ointment"?

Only if people go to get tested.

The capacity could be a million but if people don't go you don't get a million done.

But of course I guess you will blame the government for not hitting a million.

It's a program about numbers and statistics. Where information comes from and how it is used.

You should really listen to it. You can't watch it though as it's on the radio.

Perhaps you'll lose interest without bright moving images, but give it a go.

Curious that you will accept a number presented to you on the news, whatever it may be, without question. Yet when you are presented with an opportunity to find out you are determined not to.

Why's that then? You have all the information that you need because it's information that you agree with?

Are you genuinely saying that if an item is in the post it is being used?

Are you also saying that people can't be bothered to get a test?

Did you really think that the government would admit failure after stating time and again that they would meet their target? They would say anything to make people think they had kept their promise. Like everything else we are currently being fed, and I take no pleasure in espousing this, "lies, damned lies and statistics".

Make it easier for all then and get rid of the postal tests. Make everyone go to a test center.

All resources can be concentrated at those.

You have completely missed the point.

Not test capacity.

The government were claiming that they had tested 120,000 people on a given day.

They had not.

They had tested 80,000 and put 40,000 in the post.

Do you get the difference?

"If say 100,000 tests are avaliable and only 80,000 are taken why is that?

Are people not booking them even though they are avaliable?

Surely you can't expect some to turn up at everyones door step. You have to go where the test is.

Not sure what you are saying.

The government have stated that 100,000 tests were carried out on their target date. Not available. Not the total capacity. Carried out.

Only about 80,000 were carried out.

Did you listen to the program?

It's alrwady been stated sending out a test is the standard way of counting postal tests.

Why would you ask for a postal test if you have no intention of using it and returning it?

If you don't use it you are wasting it for some who wants to use it.

It's already been stated that sending a test in the post is the "standard" way of counting it as being taken?

By whom and when?

They've also managed to miss the target for the last four days.

Hmmm.

If my "cheque is in the post" it certainly has not been cashed.

You didn't listen to the program then. You just made something up to suit your view

Which program is that, another biased BBC one full of Labour supporters?

I watch the daily updates and it was sated on there as to how the postal tests are counted.

As for the daily tests the availability is there and it's up to the public to use it.

If people don't use the system the numbers fall short. It's not hard to work out is it!

It's a program about numbers and statistics. Where information comes from and how it is used.

You should really listen to it. You can't watch it though as it's on the radio.

Perhaps you'll lose interest without bright moving images, but give it a go.

Curious that you will accept a number presented to you on the news, whatever it may be, without question. Yet when you are presented with an opportunity to find out you are determined not to.

Why's that then? You have all the information that you need because it's information that you agree with?

Are you genuinely saying that if an item is in the post it is being used?

Are you also saying that people can't be bothered to get a test?

How do you explain the capacity not being used?

It's not capacity not being used, it's tests not being carried out.

If 40,000 tests "in the post" are counted as "tests being carried out" I would suggest that the testing is not actually available.

The lie caught up with them.

Make it easier for all then and get rid of the postal tests. Make everyone go to a test center.

All resources can be concentrated at those.

You have completely missed the point.

Not test capacity.

The government were claiming that they had tested 120,000 people on a given day.

They had not.

They had tested 80,000 and put 40,000 in the post.

Do you get the difference?"

You missed the point because the head of the testing program asked officials how to count these tests.

You don't like the answer what they were given so just get rid of them out of it because it don't suit you.

No, I'm really not missing the point about the Government miraculously hitting a target testing figure by counting items in the post office and then failing to got even that bogus figure later.

They chucked every spare bit of kit in the post in order to say that they hit a target.

They changes how that target was measured so that they could count items "in the post" as being tested.

The only useful pieces of data is test results completed and time to inform the patient

There's not even any point in the government lying about the figure that they are claiming as it does not help slow the spread.

At the briefing the scientist involved have a very diplomatic answer:

"As we've developed new ways of delivering tests, we've taken advice from officials as to how they should be counted,"

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-52508836

"Officials" are anybody whom the government says are important. They were not asked by the government. Government "officials" told scientists how to count.

Can you not get your head around how ludicrous that is?

You have been unable to claim that 40,000 items in the post are actually in use on that day because they are not in use. You, I and everyone else knows that.

You are now claiming (without any evidence) that government asked "officials" how to count when, in fact, "officials" were telling scientists how to.

Clearly you don't want to even hear anything that might contradict your opinion as you cannot being yourself to even listen to a radio program about statistics.

Enjoy your self imposed ignorance

The truth is you just don't like the fact the target was met.

You can whinge as must as you like about it. It's done now so move on and whinge about the next thing you don't like.

Hitting 80,000 tests was na incredibly good result from the terrible starting point. 120,000 was just a lie to meet an arbitrary target.

A test in the post is not being carried out. Is that true or not? Just say that a test in a package in a sorting office is in reality being used to conduct a test at the same time and this discussion is done

You have not addressed a single point other than to say that the government told you something that you want to believe and you will not read or listen to anything that contradicts that.

Yet you are busily telling me I'm whining with your eyes closed, ears covered whilst going "la, la, la"
