//In a slither of good news the number of winter deaths in London fell slightly from 2,700 to 2,800.//. Huh???
It's a confusing report, because the headline is suggesting 31,000 deaths due to cold weather. Then, further down, it says it's increased by a third from last year, and a third of 'those' due to cold weather.
You get more deaths in Residential homes at this time of year and they are warm. So i am sceptical. It doesn't give numbers of how many died of hypothermia, at all?
