It’s not the true total though. There’s a difference between dying with it and because of it, just as there is with flu victims. The total dying because of it will probably be half of the total.

But they’re including care homes where it is confirmed as a COVID death, you can’t just start adding all deaths on the assumption and you can’t use best guess models either just actuals otherwise it gets confusing, did we include them in yesterday’s numbers,just add again in case

How many of these had no testing 20k+ The media have blood on their hands

Hold I heard the 'true' figure was over 60k over a week ago .How can this be

And the rest we are not been told about
