@Rickster and @zouzounaki, no, I'm not particularly political. I'm no fan of Boris Johnson ............. but I'd just like to beat him with the right stick?

Of course you do, thought you would have had more likes for that post by now....time yet I suppose.....and here was me just counting a death as a death, ffs it really is that simple and tragic.

Death counting is tragic but far from simple

Rome (AFP) – Italy recorded almost 50 percent more fatalities in March than usual, according to new official data showing that the real coronavirus death toll could be far higher than the 29,000 reported.

The new data suggest that the death toll from the day the country’s first infection was reported on February 20 to March 31 could be nearly double the official figure.

We are going to have to wait a long time to find out how many died, where they died, who handled it best and whether it was Boris's fault.

Do we just deal with a situation like this differently, or are there reasons some might want to downplay the shambles the governments in n the u.k. have made of this? Every person i know that isn’t in the u.k. are bewildered just now at the situation here. My wife’s family are genuinely concerned for our wellbeing.

But while some of us are understandably pissed off there are people out clapping for BJ and trying to justify and downplay the astonishing farce of a situation we find ourselves in where the nhs is having to be crowd funded by an old guy walking up and down his garden and medical professionals in hospitals have had to wrap themselves in fuckin bin bags because they have no protective equipment.

Strange times.

I think you’ll struggle to find a better stick than this one. Look at the record of how this has been handled. It’s really pretty shameful. I would say that if it was a government of any party that were responsible for it.

No man not at all - not even a defensive thing but it makes sense - a smaller island or place with a higher amount of people (therefore closer together) is going to have a bigger infection and therefore death toll to a larger place with people spaced out more - hence why london was the major hit spot - that place is rammed!

and as crew says - San Marino and Andorra are small places

and we are a small place with a high pop density

I have not looked at the figures but I would guess the highlands of Scotland are fairing better than say - Birmingham

I really can't be arsed fella, Im just reading the stats for the UK compared to other countries as a whole as they were published....

You would need to find him first

That's not what this was about though - @Rickster specifically quoted the UK had the second highest death rate and blamed Boris Johnson.

Personally I dont see it as overly a shambles - somethings could have been handled better I’m sure, and some could have been handled worse, the same in a lot of countries tho. I know people in France and Spain and Italy who are saying the same things about their governments. And the US ... well Jesus.

it’s an unprecedented crisis for all countries - and not in my honest opinion a time for political secularism. A certain section of Labour have just derided one of their MPs for for helping a Tory MP deliver food to a food bank - I mean wtf.

that kind of everyone no matter what the politics coming together is what this country needs at the minute - not more divisiveness. We have had several years of that bullshit now.

......... if he'd just said 'Boris Johnson is a useless git' I wouldn't have said anything.

It's fkin simply....whats been recorded officially by each country is there to see, that's what we have at the moment and that's what I posted on....ok I went on to assassinate a clown, but that's purely for his lack of....well anything really........
