Now I see a lot of similar statements online and people quoting me in person have done so, this is things like that there's no flu deaths recorded and they're actually being listed as covid...

Anyone who actually knows if this is genuine or not?

Its all there in black and white on the official government website. They dont even hide it, but they dont advertise it either. Last time i looked a couple of weeks ago they stated only 375 flu deaths in the past 10 months compared to the usual number of 30,000. The numbers are there its just for people to work it out for themselves.

Given Corona has become the ' new flu' it's likely to take its place in the future.. And we will be having annual covid not annual flu jabs too I shouldn't wonder

That would make sense..

I read the worst flu years on recent record had average of 22k but I understand what you mean.

So does this mean flu isn't killing people like it used to because covid is getting to them sooner?

What I should have explained clearer is that it's all respiratory illness being recorded as covid according to certain people

Also I don't in anyway trust everything I read or am told. Hardly anything from anyone for that matter

I will assure you I am educated enough to be able to read critical data and interpret it more than it's face value I can safely say.

I do know there's too many people unable to process figures and data sets like that, which adds to the mess

I'm interested where you got the figure you state as "the usual number of 30000 flu deaths in 10 months to January"? Would you mind sharing the source?

seemed a bit high to me as I read the highest figure was from 18 and that reached 22k but either way there's many less flu deaths this year

Yes I was just going to say the on average 30000 a year don't die a flu. There are many reasons why there aren't as many cases of flu.

The 1st being the uptake of the flu vaccine in 2020 hit record highs, The 2nd being the people that are most likely to be hospitalised with flu are the people that are shielding or being very very careful because they are the same people that are vulnerable to covid.

The 3rd reason being we are not mixing as much.

So it makes perfect sense to me that there aren’t as many cases.

By your logic there should be very few COVID cases then.

my original point was that I keep hearing that practically all respiratory illness deaths are being listed as covid for cause, even some cancer deaths! and that's a widely touted statement.

Id completely agree lorna that there's got to be some likely causes such as the ones you list as to why thats happened

Upto October there was 13,100 flu deaths In 2020.

The last quarter of the year isn’t showing yet.

However the ONS reported just under 1000 in the first 3 weeks of jan this year

Since 2000 the average is around 17,000

even at the start of the pandemic realisation in early feb it was understood that covid is far more contagious than flu ie the mention of the 'R' number to symbolise the rate in which it spreads... anything potential 1 or above is thought to be pandemic potential. There's no data to know what covid 'R' potential is but I seem to remember it being categorised as having maybe 2-3! seasonal flu is about 0.7-0.8 WITHOUT lockdowns and facemasks and sanitising etc

No they don't.

The average strain of flu has an R number of 1.28

Covid is 3 or 4 minimum.

People with flu have symptoms and usually struggle to get out of bed. Therefore we don't have spread in the community in the same way as with covid.

It really isn't difficult to understand why there is hardly any flu but we still need such tight restrictions for covid.

1. People are spreading germs less because of social distancing. The distancing is based on a disease with an R0 of 2-3, while flu (source quick Google) seems to be about 1.3. So a less contagious disease will be suppressed harder.

2. Everyone's been saying "flu plus Covid equals super bad juju", so flu shot uptake has been higher, particularly for at risk groups

3. Covid deaths derive from a positive Covid test, which one would not get from flu, as they're completely different viruses

that's one link but I swear I know people who're adamant this is not true "

I think people are using whatever they can grasp at, the state of confusion, people's misunderstanding of areas of life that we never thought much about before. It's misinformation

Pure speculation on my part.

"Nobody here who can confirm first hand how deaths are recorded?

I can confirm for the death certificate I have in front of me. But not sure that's really want you are wanting.

What is the point you are trying to make?

I just see there's people I know of and here on other posts continuing to state that even things like flu deaths are listed as covid.

of course everything's speculation so far from what I can see, I was just trying to see if there are any people who ACTUALLY have a hand in death records to confirm the speculation or dispel it.

I really don't know why anyone thinks the NHS are that bloody incompetent.

We trust society to do all sorts of things, apparently, except this, when they make shit up for... why the hell would they do that.

I know someone whose father died of Covid on Monday last week and her husband died yesterday (Monday). She still denies Covid. Go figure

"Now I see a lot of similar statements online and people quoting me in person have done so, this is things like that there's no flu deaths recorded and they're actually being listed as covid...

Anyone who actually knows if this is genuine or not?"

does it matter and is it going to change anything?

well that reads rather facetious from here

It doesn't specifically to me but it kind of does matter in the grand scheme of things, as many people including threads on these very forums show people saying that the official government statistics are somehow deliberately misleading the public to believe 'it's worse than it actually is'; I'd say was their standpoint.
