UK suffers highest death rate from coronavirus

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

The article took a 5 year baseline and we know that deaths in other countries are not reported by month the same way.

Do we? How do we know this?

Is this a curve ball, that is subsequently deemed an illegal throw?

Ours is very similar to that of France in terms of towns and cities.

And are the demographics comparable?

All this comparison is just another smokescreen - we need to focus on what we are doing now and next, not on how we compared to other countries.

All countries have probably made some mistakes, and those that locked down hard and early will be suffering economically more now.

Swings and roundabouts. Well, more like guillotines and the wall of death.

Hence why I certainly won't sign up for it.

Other countries aren't keeping the data centrally and have a high uptake rate.

They 'trace' whilst the UK 'tracks'!

Please don't. The plastic surgeons who deal with burns are not going to like the spike in accidents in the mad rush to have a BBQ.

I think we've had 1 day of rain since the start of April here in Essex. That one day filled the water butts, but my new farming hobby soon used that up.
