I know and love? Do I ?

I just think the bloke is an idiot and surprised he is held in such high esteem. He is a 'professor' but isn't in anything remotely close to infection control, virus... oncology if I remember correctly. Oh and the man responsible for giving the medical advice to release the Lockerbie bomber early based on him dying within a few months, and having a less than 1% chance of living for 10 years. Which of course he did go on to do.

A man promoting 'alternative' medicine to cancer patients. Oh and a man that lied about being a Professor at the Imperial College who were forced to take legal action against him because he kept doing it.

Other than that, top bloke

You only have to google the bloke to confirm That most of what you wrote about him is rubbish
 
The fact is here that a lockdown doesn't have to stop elective treatments from the NHS, It was a government policy decision.

Our NHS didn't cope as the government will tell you, it was going to be overrun because of years of underfunding/cuts from them. If the NHS was properly funded, testing capacity was where it should have been, PPE stocks were adequate, they had acted quickly to get more in and they had taken the warnings from Italy/Spain they could have contained the virus initially and allowed elective surgeries to continue.

Don't allow the 'Our NHS coped admirably' schtick the tories give to stand up, it was essentially completely shutdown other than absolute emergencies because of government incompetence.

I'm confused, the figures dying in the UK with covid on the certificate are around 600/week, however if someone has covid, but dies of something else if they were unsymptomatic (coronary failure for example) are they counting that as a covid death?
Example - if I had been carrying covid for a week unaware, but I keeled over in the kitchen end of story, would count towards the covid deaths even though the heart attack was totally unrelated?

I believe so, yes.

Early on when testing was limited or not available, suspicion of covid was satisfactory enough for it to be noted as the likely cause of death.
 
David Lynch has designed some nice face masks. Kinda tempted if it looks like we're going to have to be wearing them for a while.

Rabbits or turkey cheese head? :lol:
