I still can’t help but feel that millions more have had this. So many people I know are saying they have had symptoms. The results of the anti body test will be key. Have read as small as 3 percent to maybe 20 percent.

I've just been out for a walk. The first in 7 weeks. Allowed an hour but had to remain within 1km of home. In essence here in Spain we are doing from today what you in the UK have been doing from day 1 of your lockdown.

That might have something to do with it.

No, you aren't. That's strict compared to our "do what the fuck you want and who cares how many you kill, as long as you do a token clap once a week" policy

I don’t think we are there are multiple cases of people who are old and have various other illnesses recorded as Covid deaths without being tested.

I know this for a fact my mates dad 90 care home dementia, diabetes been on his last legs for months - sadly died a month or so ago. They said of Covid. He died because he was old and dying he had been ill for months.

100% our numbers are higher as we are reporting covid-19 on the death certificate even if it's not definitely the cause of death. Personally I think excess deaths is the stat to go off to get an idea of how many are being lied by it. Not sure what those numbers are looking like at the minute?

When the numbers were big in Spain it always seemed that the UK who were one week behind had numbers lower than Spain had had the previous week. So I fully expected the UK to come out with lower numbers at the end.
However the stricter measures here mean Spain has done as well as can be expected after a terrible start.

The UK had an advantage but I think it's been squandered. Apart from the different approaches to lockdown it's been noticeable here that staff in supermarkets all wear masks and about 80% of the customers.

No-one will persuade me that this hasn't helped.
 
Am i the only one who struggles with the comment of second only to America, given the vast difference in population i would hope we would be lagging miles behind the states. We should be realistic and accepting that we have the worst record of deaths in Europe dispite advance warning of what was to come and witnessing what other countries were doing with regard to lockdown.

Some stern questions will need answering when this comes to pass.

It's been answered over and over. We won't be able to collate all of the figures for some time to come.
It's a bit like leading the league at Xmas only to be mid table by Easter.
