I'm not trying to dilute the crisis we are in in any way but Influenza in the winter of 2014/15 claimed a lot of lives in the UK. Stats like that tend to go unreported at the time
Public Health England estimates that on average 17,000 people have died from the flu in England annually between 2014/15 and 2018/19. However, the yearly deaths vary widely¾from a high of 28,330 in 2014/15 to a low of 1,692 in 2018/19.
Bit o good news in s korea more recovering than infected at the moment. I know all countries have different dynamics but we need to learn summat from these countries who are turning it round
I'm not comfortable myself criticising the government whilst we are in such a crisis and people are dying in shocking numbers .
However it's getting difficult when credible people within the medical sector told the government what was coming here at the fag end of January and nothing was done to prepare for the on coming pandemic .
These aren't people out for political gain , people like Richard Horton are telling you we had a window to get ourselves ready and it was largely ignored by the government .
The herd immunity plan of few weeks back seems in my opinion to be a strategy to cover up the governments lack of planning .
There are some serious conversations to take place when this thing is over and it isn't going to be pleasant for the government .
It is a fair point and I must admit one I subscribed to when it was 'China's problem' and causing a bit of a stir on a Japanese cruise ship. It's only 4 weeks today since the US reported the first death, about 5 miles from where I live and at a hospital where my daughter used to work. Events in the past 28 days tells me and should tell us all, this is not the 'common flu'.
That's the problem animal. Who says they did nothing. It's the people on the outside who are throwing the accusations around. There's a select team of experts from science and medical who are guiding use through the pandemic. They have a plan and will be judged on it at the end. Doing it Halfway through is mental.
I guess some people thrive on the negativety
