I am confident the y-axis label is wrong and it’s 9%.
The guy who published the graph on Twitter admits he made a mistake and it’s actually 9/1000.

So there’s no source which says 10 percent have COVID, even if you personally think they do.
Yeah the thing is I was about to correct it based on that but 9/1000 makes no sense. Would be lower than other areas.
Turns out you were right: https://twitter.com/john_actuary/status/1474418553545756694
I’m not sure why. There’s 90,000 cases a day in the UK. That’s roughly 1 per thousand. If we merge cases from the last couple of weeks that’s closer to 9 in a thousand than 9 in a hundred.
