by people who were Covid positive on September 14th, the latest date data is available for,\u201d reports\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-10000899\/A-QUARTER-NHS-beds-taken-Covid-patients-primarily-treated-reasons.html\">the Daily Mail<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cBut<strong>\u00a0just 4,721 patients (77%) were primarily being treated for the virus, with the remaining 1,425 receiving care for other illnesses or injuries.<\/strong>\u00a0They could include patients who\u2019ve\u00a0<strong>had a fall or even new mothers<\/strong>\u00a0who tested positive after giving birth.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In the Midlands area meanwhile, a full third of patients supposedly being treated for COVID were actually in hospital for different reasons.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The report also acknowledges that as many of half of patients who enter hospital only test positive for COVID after being admitted for an unrelated illness.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The difference between the \u2018official\u2019 figure and the real one is important because the UK government has said it won\u2019t hesitate to re-enforce mask mandates, vaccine passports and a new lockdown this winter if hospitalizations continue to rise.<\/p>\n<p>As we previously\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/summit.news\/2021\/09\/13\/uk-government-says-vaccine-passports-integral-to-covid-winter-plan-day-after-they-were-supposedly-scrapped\/\">highlighted<\/a>, despite the fact that the vaccine was supposed to prevent hospitalizations, many of the same experts who lobbied for the previous lockdowns are claiming that numbers are on a trajectory that will mandate new lockdown restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>Just 24 hours after health secretary Sajid Javid asserted that they had been completely scrapped, the government reversed its position, saying that vaccine passports will in fact form a \u201cfirst-line defence\u201d against a winter wave of coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p>Back in December, the same government told the public that there was no plan whatsoever to introduce vaccine passports even as they were paying private corporations to build the system.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a
