That is what will be lost.
I can already hear it... it wasn't that bad. We didn't have to shut everything down like we did.

Only a few million, we shouldnt have bothered.

My Dad's cousin who is fighting cancer has this, they don't think he'll see out the week

For perspective, 1,600 die per day on average from other stuff.

all combined? If so if anything that makes me think 563 is an even more depressing number.

mostly being said by the people who said the state was too big, business needed to be flexible in hiring workers and that everything was fantastic in healthcare and didn't need change or more money

The Business Secretary does these announcements quite well. He has put the banks on the hook to ensure they stop dragging their feet with business loans......

I knew nothing good would come from mucking around with thought experiments. Disaster waiting to happen.

I read an article this morning that suggested that the daily mortality rate will go up for the duration of this, but the yearly rate will not change much and possibly go down, because it's reckoned that 60% of those that die from covid 19 will likely have died within 6 months regardless, so obviously a higher percentage over 12 months, the explanation of the yearly death rate going down was given as the social distancing putting an early end to flu season, people not getting into fatal car crashes, work place fatalities etc, those combined with those who got Covid 19 that would likely have have died from their underlying condition anyway will see the actual mortality rate not change much.
