More people died in the UK in 2015 than in 2020. This is a fact. How can people reconcile this when talking about a mass pandemic in 2020?

Even as I sat concussed and getting a brain scan they were asking me if I had any covid symptoms. They almost seemed disappointed when I kept (5 times) having to say "No!" True story. Is A&E not seperated into two seperate units, one for Covid & one for normal non covid patients? If that's the case then of course there would be more people who have fallen on black ice than those with covid, because the covid patients would have been in a different part of A&E, well away from you and other non covid patients. I admit I don't know the set up at ERI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My anger from a selfish point of view is lockdown and the taking away of my civil liberties and sound mental health but I am appalled that the government is not giving 2 single flying ****s about the vast majority of healthy citizens and the vast majority of people dying and suffering from illness not attributed to covid.

Im saying much more people may have had it than that 1 in 8 statistic. Just because you don’t have antibodies doesn’t mean you haven’t had the virus. We don’t even know how long anti bodies last for and some people might have a natural immunity which would mean they would never even developed antibodies in the first place (as I understand it!) Taking all that into account if they estimate that 1 in 8 currently have antibodies that tells me that much more people have came into contact with the virus than that.

The deaths would be lower , the news more positive and the lockdown less if BJ had just acted fast at the start and closed borders.

Unless the "at home" figure includes care homes?? Doesn't explain the slight drop in hospital deaths. Obviously there is an overlap with all other respiratory deaths that ,this year, are Covid deaths but you would still expect them to be significantly higher.

So for every hop off you might need to self isolate in a hotel for 14 days, get tested again before you get back on, that needs to be 3 days earlier and finally self isolate when you get home. Sounds great. (Actually does that make sense if you have been vaccinated? It will be vaccinated only folk on the cruise. Other countries may not let you in until their vaccine rates hit the 80% vaccination level, where a vaccinated herd immunity is considered safe) Edited January 20, 2021 by DETTY29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you realise that the death rates increase as there is more people alive.
