    5 times fewer

    Scientists admit deaths with covid are 5 times fewer than expected from their models.

    Remember that when the doomongers appear in October.

    could you give the reference. I've been wondering how the forecasts compared with the outcomes. It seems to me that maybe the actions taken, like lockdowns and social distancing will have contributed to the success that we are having. You would think that the scientists could work out the influences on the reduction in cases, and more importantly the reduction in hospital admittances. Lockdowns, social distancing and vaccinations seem to be the key weapons.

    International travel bans also seem to be very significant. I'm hoping for a holiday in Majorca this summer, so any good news will be welcome.

    That's because they will have applied a factor of five when calculating their worst case scenarios, they then scare everyone by issuing only worst case scenarios - hence they say 'could be' or 'can be' or 'might be' never 'expected to be' or 'will be' or 'shall be'.

    And the governments and pubic bought the scaremongering. Meanwhile the same scientists are raking it in through worldwide sales of vaccines that they developed and licensed. Did someone not predict twelve months ago that we'd be here at this point? Forced vaccines and vaccine passports - but then I'm just a Covidiot so what do I know?

    No,it's because the models were based on worst case scenario,with no action taken to prevent the spread.

    Also Astra zenica are selling vaccines at cost which makes it a lot harder to take it in,but then,you are a covidiot,so you won't listen anyway...

    Ok,the three million dead worldwide are all a hoax,the vaccine is a placebo to make money for the scientists, and apparently it's me that needs to wake up...

    Scientists made models on deaths based on no lockdowns,no masks,no social distancing and no vaccine. You can argue lockdown was ineffective if you want,but then you need to come up with a reasonable alternative.

    Bottom line is that for whatever reason,I am guessing a combination of all measures,the number of deaths is significantly lower than the worst case scenario. Which it would be if those measures were having any affect.

    Unless of course you have looked at the scientists modelling and spotted a line that says "multiply by 5"
