	The idea of this graph is to attempt to make use of the most recent information from [https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/download public data] about the number of confirmed cases in various age bands, so that trends over the last few days can hopefully be discerned. The numbers in each age band are adjusted/corrected for their incompleteness, then corrected for day-of-week biases, in both cases, as far as possible, in a non-laggy way.

	~~17th January 2022:~~
	* There was a large and sudden change in testing delays from around 12 January. (See https://twitter.com/chrisdrakeuk/status/1483136824948277256.) Since the algorithm for this webpage tries to predict this to some extent, it may be a bit confused for a few days. As usual, best not to take too much notice of the last few days' trend.

	~~January 2022:~~
	* If there were any testing capacity issues over the new year, it looks like they were mostly temporary with things more-or-less back to normal from 9 January, albeit with slight shortages of home LFDs. Again see https://russss.github.io/covidtracker/testing.html

	~~30th December:~~
	* Case numbers may be limited by testing capacity now. See https://russss.github.io/covidtracker/testing.html for some evidence of this.

	~~29th December:~~
	* '''Warning 1''': data over Christmas period may be misleading owing to unusual testing and reporting patterns. There is special case processing here which moves cases around between 25th, 26th and 27th December (conserving the total number of cases in each age band). This is just my guess to produce something somewhat sensible by attempting to undo the effect of delayed tests over Christmas. It looks by eye to me like it removes a decent chunk of the (otherwise large) artefact over Christmas, but there is absolutely no guarantee this a correct procedure and there is no guarantee that there aren't other recent artefacts, such as change in overall propensity to test.
	* '''Warning 2''': The last one or two values of each graph are less certain than the others and it is risky to use these alone to gauge whether cases are going up or down.
