Lockdown V3

[Enoch]

Still seems the data being reported is massively suspicious.

Just reading there and they are reporting 674 deaths related to covid and only 47 not related to covid.

That's a massive discrepancy in numbers being reported. There is no denying how many people are in hospitals but when you have such a massive gap in the numbers like that, it's inflating figures for covid and diminishing general death numbers.

Right now the focus is on how many people are filling hospitals up leading to this lockdown and that's fine, we have to do something about it.

But it still rings true that people are dying despite of covid but the figure we are being told is lumping them all together to give a massively inflated number that detracts from everything else.

For context on average 1500 people a day die in the country. So when the numbers being reported are skewered to such an extent as they are, it's majorly misleading. Especially given we are focusing on the admissions now.

You could interpret your numbers as being good news that average deaths have dropped due to covid.
It might help if you post links confirming your numbers.

10 points for understanding what he was trying to say.
I got lost right at the beginning because it looked like either he was replying from a conversation someone had had somewhere and I'd missed it or there was meant to be a linky in there somewhere showing what he was referencing in his post.

Had to rewatch for the "cabal of careerist shit-munchers" comment...

I was suppressing irritation at further numbers being plucked and flung at the internet...

It would seem sky news have rewritten their news article about it and removed the information. Bloody bastards making me look stupid.

For the record it was there for several hours word for word what I posted, 674 covid 47 non covid. Amongst all the disclaimer about it potentially including Christmas period etc.

There is confusion... hope this clears it up, the 47 are other covid related deaths without having been tested , but mentioned on the death certificate.

NHS England reports 674 more Covid hospital deaths
NHS England has reported 674 further hospital coronavirus deaths. The details are here.

This is almost 100 more than the total number of hospital deaths announced yesterday (582) which was until now the largest daily figure for hospital deaths announced by NHS England in this wave of the pandemic.

For comparison, here are the equivalent figure for the last four Wednesdays.

A week ago today - 494

Two weeks ago today - 416

Three weeks ago today - 369

Four weeks ago today - 344

All these figures relate to people who died in hospital after testing positive for Covid. They are the headline numbers produced by NHS England. But it also records patients who die in hospital without having had a positive test, but where Covid was mentioned on the death certificate. Today, in addition to the 674 headline deaths, NHS England is recording 47 other Covid-related deaths.

Apparently none of the 47 were Flu related either, according to the Gov website, nobody was admitted to an ICU in England with Flu related Respiratory diseases or Pneumonia, between the end of September 2020 and the end of December 2020 !!! Covid has eradicated the Flu as well apparently, either that or the Flu vaccine has drastically improved, even taking in to account the uptake in vaccinations last year !!!
