... to the comments by Professor Giesecke in the video I posted yesterday.
Once again interesting interview. Continuing Lockdown not sustainable but doesn't seem sure of the next move. Admission that the modelling did not take into account the excess deaths of non Covid patients due to treatment not being available!!
Wow!

In the interest of balance - did it take into account all those lives saved because of reduced traffic accidents, reduced knife crime, improved air quality, or lost to increased domestic violence etc. etc.
Truth is we will only be able to draw informed conclusions after the event when all the data is to hand.

For sure. That will be about comparing the actual numbers of deaths to an average year.
You seen the FT figures? They do pretty much that. Tracking at 47k additional deaths last time I saw them, somewhat ahead of the official 27k.
And the worries about cancer (non) diagnosis will be impacting us too in the future. That is only going to be bad news.
On that happy note - hope you are well. Have a cyber pint arranged with your son tonight :-)
