UK Covid death toll

[baggy1]

The hospitals are fitting in as many operations, treatments and consultations as they can from what I can see, obviously they have limited capacity but the space isn't being taken up by covid any more. There will obviously be a backlog but the government is pushing for using private hospitals as part of their privatisation agenda. Add to that there has always been a backlog and it looks like there is a narrative starting about it only is because of covid (there was a serious incident called last year because of the backlogs). Also don't forget the years of underfunding and understaffing of the NHS and you can see why we now have problems.
