So over 1 million dead from Covid-19 by the end of this year?

Maybe they're killing off the local wildlife and just had a bumper week for road kills?

Some of the stuff they throw out isn't in bin bags and it looks virtually new.

Maybe there's a business opportunity there. Nick their bin bags and flog the stuff on eBay.

Another moron who compares this to flu. This kills healthy young adults, and those that don't die are left with strokes, brain damage, scarred lungs and permanent health issues.

No it doesn't. If it did we'd see a lot more stories in the media of healthy young people on ECMO - we've seen none. There are a few outliers but pretty much healthy individuals in the UK under 40 have been safe. Children rarely even show symptoms.

The old, and those with underlying symptoms are at risk. We've known this from before the 1st infection in the UK, yet we cleared out hospitals and sent infected back into care homes.

We have also completely abandoned those who have home care; home carers were offered furlough so many who need care have been getting ziltch for months now.

These are just some of the reasons why our mortality rate is so high.

Daily and total confirmed COVID-19 deaths - Our World in Data..

Seems steady at 5,000 people dead per day. More than half a million dead already, seems a fair guess that we will have over 1,000,000 dead before the year is out.

But at least the govt are doing something, we get the starter when we go out for dinner for free...

meanwhile 360,000 babies are born every day.
we are the virus on earth. There needs to be a cull of 50% of the population if the planet is to recover from our destructive actions.

Unfortunately, when challenged, people on here will immediately say that it's not them that need to have fewer babies, but "OTHERS".
Do nothing yourself, always blame others.

Each individual needs to do their bit.

We should all be applauding China with their attempts with the one child policy and pandemic virus contributions.

No-one gets out of life alive. Humans will find a way to kill themselves off one way or another; we are a self-destructive species.

War remains the number one cause of death amongst the species.

The number of post Covid-19 recovery cases resulting in follow up symptoms is concerning. Ask yourself, is it really worth going out for that pint between now and until a vaccine is available?

[d000hg]

And?

FFS, people die from influenza every year. Even more die with influenza!

I'm sure I saw a chart showing CV was now the leading cause of death on Earth though I might be totally incorrect there, it was a few weeks back.
