[Tim Spector MD (Prof) @timspector]

Are cases going up or down? The media tend to focus on a single survey study each week without giving the bigger picture showing all three. Its much clearer that prevalence rates are still declining- although as expected the rate is slowing down which show we are still on track !

[Jimmy Williams @JimmySwims]

@g__j Awesome work. Congrats!

@AdamJKucharski Is this also complicated by a local lens? Eg National new cases might look stable at a high level, but that’s just an average that hides different pictures and measures locally?

"The reason price walking happens is that price comparison websites are so important to insurers. The only way to win on price comparison is to be the cheapest,” says @JimmySwims of @MyUrbanJ

"Price walking is completely systemic in the insurance industry. Many firms are doing it and we think it should stop so we welcome the FCA’s call," says Jimmy Williams of insurtech Urban Jungle
