UK Covid death toll

[billybassett]

Still 245 deaths again today !
Far too high and the rate seems to be coming down far slower than other countries at similar stages.

Careful, you'll be accused of hysteria in a minute

Amazing how people don’t like truth and facts eh!

It is 245 too many. But there would have been on average 140 flu deaths anyway based on previous years figures and circa 200 poisoning deaths today as well.

It's not that the numbers are obviously bad, and many are due to the appalling handling of care homes, it's that these figures have no context so people bandy them around to create a hysteria.

I'm more worried about the 60k less cases of diagnosed cancer this year so far, the 10 million waiting list on the NHS we've supposedly protected and the deaths from an economy that will have 3m unemployed by the end of the year. That's hysteria I can hear.
