Good news though, appears we have no flu again this year. Imagine that Strange isn't it.. Covid deaths are reported as covid no matter what the actual cause of death was if someone tested positive up to 28 days before they died (this includes all those who caught covid whilst they were already dying in hospital which is a not insignificant number!). Flu deaths, on the other hand follow this criteria for reporting : Quote "Due to" refers only to deaths where influenza and pneumonia was recorded as the underlying cause of death and "involving" referring to deaths that had influenza and pneumonia mentioned anywhere on the death certificate, whether as an underlying cause or not.

Disagree. There's no manipulation. My dad is dying. If he gets covid he won't survive.

Look, I’m agreeing with you cases are going up, just pointing out they aren’t doubling. If we had Omicron, or Delta, cases this winter would be rising. If Omicron is not as deadly as Delta, maybe it isn’t so bad for it to be coming the dominant variant, in theory, as long as hospitals can cope. Put it another way, if I were vulnerable (and to a point we all could be, but some more than others), then i would take it upon myself to shield as best I could, until the peak has passed.
