[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Coronavirus deaths rise for FIFTH week in a row in England and Wales with 36% rise to 438 in early October and now make up 4.4% of all fatalities
Although the number of deaths rising is a concern, the current numbers still don't compare to those in the peak of the first wave, when more than 1,000 people died each day. In the worst week on record, between April 11 and 17, the deaths of a staggering 8,758 coronavirus patients were recorded. The most recent week is just five per cent of that number.

| #4 Interesting factoid - flu deaths each year are calculated based on the difference between actual deaths and a baseline. No one actually tests for flu. It's just an estimate. This year flu deaths are down 95%. Anyone want to guess why? |

| #3 Ross Clark The growing evidence on lockdown deaths According to the ONS, an extra 25,472 people have died at home than would otherwise be expected from the average past five years — some of them, no doubt, would have died even if they had reached hospital, but not all. Meanwhile, the NSPCC has reported that calls to its helpline averaged 8,287 in May compared with 5,593 in early March, as children were shut away at home with their abusers. These are just a few of the effects of lockdown, and of the poor messaging that led to many people failing to seek medical attention. These numbers will eventually have to be balanced against the lives potentially saved by the lockdown. These lives killed by lockdown are a lot YOUNGER than those above the above average lifespan (82.4) who died of COVID and thus the impact of the lockdown cultists on man years of life has been horrendous. |
