Highest Number Of Death In Uk

[lankeela]

wonder if they all enjoyed their Christmas and it was all worth it.

[Sunk]

80,000 of those deaths were BEFORE Christmas.

So it is a cheap and nasty question.

the "lockdown skeptics" have a lot to answer for in my opinion...

[Mexican18]

What an awful question!
You almost sound as if you are pleased there are so many deaths.

[webbo3]

Loading the gun for Sunk and gulliver.

[Mexican18]

Let us hope that you stay well. I have just come out of hospital after being unable to breath ( and terrified) for a week! Good luck!

Above meant for Lankeela.

lankeela, suggest you read this....it puts the numbers in perspective - and part of it is that lockdown has led to virtually zippo flu cases and deaths because of that are nearly zero, so some compensation/

However, the BBC wets will be weeing in their pants at shooting down the good work done by the government, the NHS and the public at large - and one has to remember that the numbers today include the hangover of the weekend numbers......

Webbo 16.44 , no point in loading a gun for you .
You would only shoot youself in the foot with it/. LOL.

It’s “catch up” Tuesday.
I deplore the blame game really whether it’s aimed at people or the government.
And the comments about the BBC are particularly baffling

[Zacs-Master]

I think Lankeela is suggesting that the deaths have been the result of going out and partying and are therefore deserved. Rather bizarre.

[woofgang]

nasty lankeela, unworthy of you

I dont think lankeela is wrong and she does not sound pleased to me... Christmas did contribute to a rise in covid cases and much like the rest of our govt's calamitous response this was avoidable. "Good work done by the government"... my foot!

[royfromaus]

Nice pile-on.

I assume no one thinks the mass ignoring of the lockdown over Christmas and new year has anything to do with the surge in cases and deaths?

[royfromaus]

I think the Christmas casualties are yet to come. Brace yourselves.

//the "lockdown skeptics" have a lot to answer for in my opinion...//

Why have they? They have not succeeded in influencing government policy. And, of course, you’re assuming the deaths were caused either by weak legislation or people not adhering to it. I have a friend who contracted Covid and he had not left his house for over five weeks before he tested positive. His wife had but she did everything recommended when she returned. The plain fact is that it is impossible to prevent viruses spreading. That is abundantly clear and it just needs to be accepted.

[nailit]

If we are blaming 'Lockdown Deniers' for high infection rates,
can someone explain to me how a family of 5, living in the same household, gets 2 members tested positive while the other 3 dont?
All living in close proximity, breathing the same air, sharing the same utensils etc)
Im baffled at this highly infectious disease.

[Mamyalynne]

Some people have a higher resistance to viruses than others - you can observe this in families when colds and flu comes along.

Sometimes it sweeps through everyone and sometimes some escape it.

[bobbinwales]

When were they tested nailit and were the others tested as negative? They may get a difference if there retested a few days later. Some are more suseptible to viruses. But agree its unpredictable
