I very much doubt that any post-lockdown financial stimuli will be allocated based on the number of deaths, like taking your empties back to the bottle bank.

Also, the UK has two sets of figures to include/exclude deaths outside of hospitals.

This whole thing is just turning into the latest excuse for some classic NCM science contradiction/foreigner bashing.
There are numerous sauces of information concerning how different countries manipulate figures to suit their own agenda, for the past, present or future and I'm not excluding the UK. But if you think I'm going to trawl through them all to suit you, you can either go look through previous posts, read the foreign press yourself, or go and boil your head. Besides, the British press has shown how they prefer sensationalism to factual reporting but there are more than the red top tabloids to source information.

Sorry for mentioning the French in my last post, I didn't know they were foreigners, classic NCM racist prejudice, eh?
