If the UK where really serious about the actual covid death toll they should address the huge discrepancy between the reported covid deaths and the excess mortality during the pandemic. Not a good look for the UK.
- Nursie 6y agoNearly all countries have a discrepancy there, if you can find the figures. You can find some for the US here, though not a single, unified figure - https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/excess_deaths.htm https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/excess_deaths.htm Interestingly enough the weekly UK excess death figures went negative at the end of June, meaning less people died that week than in previous years. Presumably this is due to the huge number of deaths in care homes in previous weeks.
