@victor-meldrew but a car accident death within 28 days is still a covid death? What about a suicide? Or a murder? (I can feel my blood pressure rising....🙂).
I don't expect you to look that up mate. I got a big night in front of the tele, best to leave it there😁

In the UK the death certificate would usually show all contributing factors in descending (I think) order. Likely in Vic’s MIL case Covid would not be a contributing factor. But… still goes in the stats as a Covid death. If you test positive and get run over by a bus outside the test centre, you’re in the stats as a Covid death. 🤷
Yep. Which is why international comparisons are difficult and the most accurate measure is excess death rates. And to be fair to the Government, that's been their position almost from day 1

It goes in the Covid deaths total, but not on the Death Certificate.

I think you are getting yourself worked up over not much here. Excess deaths are unequivocal proof that Covid is taking people early. The numbers are broadly in line, so its' just reality. How much life people are losing is a fair question, as the vast majority of deaths are elderly, ill & obese.

Spot on. The trouble comes when the media, conspiracy theorists, politicians and the like concentrate on the less relevant but easier to consume figures.

Thanks doctor. I thought the emojis might be a clue. Cricket is far more important

Not today but mate I will be asking you to explain that, honestly I don't understand the link you described. But I do have a cunning plan. I call it an "excess death" vaccine.😂
Seriously, I'd like some explanation of what you raised, at a later date. Cheers rage.

I don't know, mate. Have you ruled out a spate of people being hit by buses? The same group of people would be slower to get out of the way

Think we’ll see far less compliance based on The Hancock Affair.
Only have to say sorry now and it’s all good.

UK Ferners, do we reckon they'll actually reopen July 19th given the spread of the delta variant?
Hong Kong banning all UK passengers flights from July 1st as "high risk" is not a good sign...
Should they? Yes
Will they? NoMore people died in the Miami building collapse than have in Wales since 23 May
It's a joke
