If the percentage of local Muslim population was a factor then why is Sheffield not not far behind Birmingham when Muslims make 6 percentage of Sheffields population but 21 percentage of the population of Birmingham. There's not correlation to even argue causation.
Also Bradford 135 Leicester 149 and Luton 116 all have sizeable Muslim Community’s but are all
Pretty low in Covid 19 cases compared to similar city’s, all lower than Coventry’s
So I would say the attempt at a tenuous link is a crock of shit.

Exactly it seems to me the type of shite that Tommy Nobinson fans will spout on twitter

The thing with this is Manchester 221 on its own, if you add in the outlying areas
That make up Greater Manchester the numbers I would think will be very similar to
Birmingham ‘as would the population.
If you gage Sheffield 715 against comparable city’s, Liverpool 342 , Leeds 219
Sheffield for some reason looks really high.
Manchester and the GM boroughs together are much bigger than the city of Birmingham population wise (2.8m vs 1.086m), not that your point doesn't have some validity though.

But is Birmingham being counted as just that, or is Walsall, Smethwick, West Bromwich etc
Being included under the same umbrella.

Mad for the daleks
Always fascinated me

I'd be straight out to have a closer look and a chat
Would have to inhale as I spoke though

Or they wouldn't get my drift Lol.

I was utterly terrified of them, but had to watch- even to this day I’ll happily watch a few episodes...

Hampshire outside of those places is pretty wealthy though especially towards Surrey. I worked in Guildford a few times, only place in this country where I've seen estate agents selling ski chalets!
Yeah it certainly follows the winter skiing italy path but still looks high compared to other similar counties

My apologies, just read your list again and not only are they individually named
But there numbers look exceptionally high as well.

Sorry to hear this mate x
Yes, second that.

My best friend's dad has been in intensive care now for 12 days and her mum was rushed into hospital yesterday. Both her bothers and her cousin have now also been confirmed to have Covid-19 too.

:(

I heard on local news that Wolverhampton is a bit of a hotspot for this virus, it’s a city in itself but outside of the region is seen as part of the Birmingham conurbation as is Walsall, West Bromwich, Dudley and other towns. To link the spread of this disease to Muslim areas is pathetic but perhaps not a surprise, ask yourselves how many Muslims are there in Italy or Spain.

For gods sake.... what a mature argument. If you don't see the mess the government have made of this leaving us all in danger then you are truly blinkered. Even The Daily Mail is sticking the boot in.
It's not a mature argument is it. It's very telling how you pick up on my post though. I'm not the one taking over the thread spouting my own political agenda.

Is this down to high Muslim areas I wonder where people are still meeting up for Friday pray etc ?
It's not down to the Muslim area's as surely there would be a pattern emerging over the whole country? I imagine though that the mosques are still open even though there supposed to be closed.
