"Does anyone actually believe the figure is really 100,000? The reason for death being labelled as Covid is not really the truth in the vast majority of the cases. With so many of the deaths being the very elderly they were nearing the end of the lives sadly and it has been far more straight forward to attach the Covid scenario to their unfortunate demise rather than to look beyond. Those who were elderly and many of those who were not were suffering from under lying illness which may have meant that their lives were in extreme danger regardless of the pandemic. The 100,000 figure, I believe, is a misnomer and probably is borne out of a fear message propagated by Government and health officials, banded by the media and is more of an 'ease of death certificate information' rather actual fact. Let's try to get some perspective and whilst any death is very distressing I do not feel that this figure is a true representation. Only my opinion as I have no way to back up what I have said " I dont believe it I think its more | |||

What exactly happened in 2020 to make the excess deaths spike way above the expected normal? If all these people were going to pop their clogs anyway, the rate would be similar to other years. Like others, I believe 100k is an underestimate, and obviously it also doesn't account for medium to long term effects/disability. | |||

Why would they exaggerate it?" I am not of the opinion it has simply been exaggerated but that it has perhaps been a label misused in some circumstances. For example, if a person of 94 who was not in perfect health suddenly died, could this be caused by Covid or would that person have died at that time regardless? Many elderly people die of flu, respiratory issues or pneumonia, vivid happens to be prevalent but may not necessarily be the actual cause. | |||

We're asking why you don't trust the source. I'm perfectly aware that believing everything blindly is a bad idea, but to claim it's wrong because maybe someone died randomly and they were added to the stats is a bit... implausible. | |||

"Numbers may be inaccurate and other countries have perhaps understated the deaths, but people are still dead! People love to blame the government but in reality it is people that spread the virus, sometimes unavoidably, sometimes stupidly. If all the global numbers are accurate then the question is why are we so high in the death rankings? Our health service, although strained, is still one of the largest employers in the world. Are we really that unhealthy as a nation that we are more susceptible?" Look to restrictions/ policies. Delayed lockdowns, inadequate protection for workers, restricted access to tests early (plus a limited symptom list now), ongoing bullshit with care homes, masking and bubble policy in schools, eat out to help out, group of six, the Cummings effect, and more. | |||

"I appreciate delays will have had a detrimental effect but ours are so spectacularly bad there must be other issues" It's a whole combination of issues, some mentioned, some will be unknown. International travel not sufficiently curtailed anywhere quick enough. In 1917 during the last pandemic, how long would it have taken someone to get from Wuhan to the UK? At sea from Shanghai it's around 50 days without stopping. Today, Wuhan, about 15 hours... | |||

"I appreciate delays will have had a detrimental effect but ours are so spectacularly bad there must be other issues" There was a piece on Newsnight last night which gave a really good precis with regards to why our numbers are where they are.. Poverty is a determining factor, health, age all play a part too.. There was a GP who has worked in Fleetwood, Lancs which is a deprived area who said in the last 30 years he's seen a decline in health in his area despite the advances made medicines and treatment wise in that time.. | |||

There was a report last year which said life expectancy was slowing down in parts of the north. Obviously through a myriad of factors but the change has been over the last decade. Think they have already said areas of high poverty are hit disproportionately during the pandemic. | |||

"After sifting through all the above. God. Some went way off target It’s simple. The reports say 100000 linked to COVID deaths. Today as we stand taking in the past few days it is actually 102,254. But I’ll tell you one thing. There could be thousands that havnt been recorded and many more to be added. Back home in Ireland. Unfortunate the daily average is around 49 deaths per day with approx 2000 new cases each day. Now with a lower population than the uk it’s still a high number but it shows that with a proper lockdown and strict enforcement we can help bring the numbers down. So all you lot who have meet me now all over your profiles. Please please please. Go fucking jump off a cliff already " ![]() | |||
