@badradger saidMy first thought would that that is phenomenal accuracy over a tiny increase and my second thought would be that bet it’s hardly statistically significant.

@badradger saidTo to be clear, your claiming that the UK office for national statistics is showing data that UK deaths are only up by 75 individual deaths and only 1% percent of that increase is due to CV?

@badradger saidI think the issue isn't the number of deaths, it's the number of avoidable deaths. Yes, people die all the time, but I'm personally a big supporter of the idea of preventing avoidable deaths. What's unique about COVID19 is it takes the whole species to work together to prevent avoidable deaths since it takes a team effort to prevent the severe cases all arriving at hospital at the same time.
