Did you look at that plot on page 2? Choosing what certainly looks like a single dramatic outlier point which is 2 weeks older than the dashboard certainly seems like cherry picking. Just look at the current dashboard data it shows ~440 deaths per day for the last 2 weeks. Again: https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/ https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/ Also note that there almost aren't deaths from other flus over the last 2 years, likely because they don't have an R value >1 due to masking etc. Look, I'm all for getting back to normal and letting the unvaccinated (and old, poor, sick) die off as god intended, but let's not pretend it's all due to a lack of joyful evenings in the pub.
