Green Man When the G7 meet in the Summer, no doubt they have something planned like higher taxes, more masks and Great Reset and more social distancing. ( which bit the social part ? )

Yes it is not worth even arguing comparative responses. Responses to what? A normal death rate. Big deal. A collective insanity has swept the globe. Covid deniers? No. Let's start in 2021 judging lockdown defenders as "collateral-deniers" (i.e lockdown collateral damage, to put it politely and euphemistically).

If you are trying to map fatalities with lockdown speeds Hedda you will fail. There are so many variables, and international comparisons show no correlation between the two things. There are countries that did not lockdown at all and have done far better than both in protecting citizens. It is just too simple an explanation. But we do need to understand why the UK has protected its citizens the least in the world, yes.


And bankrupted us to boot!
JK2006 I think it's crucial to remember that the five worst countries by far for Deaths to Cases ratio when the virus started were UK/France/Spain/Italy & Belgium. 25% plus of cases ended with death. Everywhere else has been under 5% including the USA, Brazil and others with huge populations. NOW the death rate is even lower everywhere (though you wouldn't know it from media coverage). Millions die every year globally; the millions in 2020 will be no more than in 2019 or 2021.
