As of 9am on 26 July ...14 deaths were announced.
451 in the last seven days, down from 481 for the previous week. But it is still almost double the seven days pre-lockdown (16.3-22.3 242 deaths).

To be fair Alvez I did some crappy analysis of that some time ago. At the time I was interested in things like suicide to see if there was a surge in those kind of deaths, due perhaps to lockdown.
I could only conclude, as I recall, that covid deaths were being under reported.
I do, of course, accept that our reporting, whilst considered good by other nations, is actually pretty poor, and the rest of the world are just worse
Alvez, I didn't say any such thing. I said there were 2 interpretations. When I looked at a similar graph I drew some conclusions.
Alvez, I don't see why you are saying it clearly shows over-reporting. I am not suggesting it does or does not. I don't think it says anything about over-reporting. Please enlighten me, as I am clearly missing that.
Is it you think it shows over reportingI'm saying you said it showed under reporting and I was asking how. I've stated up thread why I think it shows over reporting

Or
It clearly shows over reporting
It clearly shows over reporting in my opinion.
I said I concluded the graph indicated under-reporting. It was prior to June, but not dissimilar to the chart you posted.I'm saying you said it showed under reporting and I was asking how. I've stated up thread why I think it shows over reporting
I said I concluded the graph indicated under-reporting. It was prior to June, but not dissimilar to the chart you posted.
At the time, as I recall, I concluded there was under reporting because of a large number of excess deaths with no apparent reason for those excess deaths.
I would expect some deaths to increase, you are right, cancer and heart related conditions for example due to the fear of attending the hospital.
At the same time there would be a reduction in deaths from such things as road traffic accidents, other infectious disease, accidents in the work place, to name a few.
It was a conclusion I reached, the graph I looked at didn't draw any conclusions, it was just numbers, as is the chart you posted.
That is a giggle Alvez.No mine is a direct comparison between 'types of death' for the most common reason for the month of June for the past 5 years Vs this June.
You stated as shown above that it showed under reporting I was flabbergasted by such a claim you've since obfuscated. For instance road traffic accidents and workplace accidents aren't even on the graph good sir. I even conceded your second point, are you incapable of coming to some middle ground and accepting the possibility?
Wasn't going to make two separate posts. Entirely innocent.Absolute not context to the bottom tweet.

Do hospital suspect covid until patients are tested (I believe it’ll be this one)
The no context to the story.
Did she show a symptom?

What I took from the picture was that she went to hospital with a dodgy leg and was diagnosed with suspected covid-19 as a cause??The no context to the story.

Really?Everyone is a suspected Covid-19 case on admittance to hospital until a test confirms otherwise.
