A small percentage yea but the suggestion is that all flu deaths are for some reason being logged as Covid deaths. Flu deaths might have been mistaken for Covid deaths way back when we didn’t have reliable testing, but since then, it would as you say only be a death caused by flu of someone who also had a positive Covid test within 28 days before dying. In all probability it will have happened at some point, but only a small number of times. Most flu deaths will not be mistakenly counted in Covid figures. There seems to be some confusion about why we’re “not hearing about flu deaths” but that’s just because they’re not logging flu deaths (or any other deaths) daily like they do with Covid deaths and, as it’s always been, you only get those stats for the full year, once they’ve been compiled.

Deaths from flu and other non-Covid-related pneumonia in England and Wales in 2020 were 20,523. This is largely consistent with pre-Covid years (approx 20,000 PA).

The data for 2021 will not be available until late 2022… they take a while to compile. But to say they don’t exist/aren’t being logged/seem to have stopped is nonsense, this data is easily and clearly available via ONS.


FWIW I think once the pandemic is “over” or more stable I think we will eventually get more accurate revised stats about Covid cases, deaths and fatality ratios. That will likely be beyond 2025. The data we get as “live updates” now is messy and unrefined… but as close to accurate as is possible without more in depth analysis.

Again you just selectively go through reading what you want to read and believing what you want to believe in this thread Alf, but maybe you'll see it now that it's been up twice.

The point he makes about the shocking slowness of the WHO talking about Omnicron is incredible

The UK is the closest of any country in the northern hemisphere to exiting the Covid-19 pandemic, an expert has said.

Professor David Heymann, from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), suggested in a Chatham House online briefing that the UK was seeing the disease become endemic.

He said: “In general, now, the countries that we know best in the northern hemisphere have varying stages of the pandemic.

“And probably, in the UK, it’s the closest to any country of being out of the pandemic if it isn’t already out of the pandemic and having the disease as endemic as the other four coronaviruses.”

yes i agree, now we need to remove all lockdowns, open all non-essential stores again


the more people who spread omicron further, the better the chance delta might go away more the more people who get omicron the better


also my mom's thoughts now

yes, apparently there is a new childhood respiratory illness doing the rounds now that causes shortness of breath and that is down to low immunity due to lockdowns

I call BS on this, kids have been back in school for a good 18 months and all of the normal sniffles and sneezes went around last year. If anything last year was quite a "bad one" - loads of little bugs going around in early winter 2020 after the "long" homeschooling period.

Why would they have low immunity currently?

Schools haven't been "off" since February 2021... and even then it was just normal Xmas break extended by a month or so.

Unless they're claiming kids are mixing less outside of school? That doesn't ring true from what I've seen either.

After watching the testaments in the American Senate, against Fauci and his involvement in Wuhan's gain of function, I'd say he's a man not to trust. He may well end up being put on trial for this whole sorry mess.

I think they are talking about babies/preschool kids
