The point of the death rate was to flatten the death rate to an acceptable level. The ONS data today show over 4000 deaths last week, at an average over the week of over 600 per day.
Germany never went about a rolling average of 200 per day even in their peak. France didn't get to 600 deaths per day at their peak and their government rightly stepped in and said sport is unsafe in this context, and the season needs to be ended.
These cannot be squared with an approach that football is safe to return. If you look at the international evidence it's not. The only people who think it is, are the Prime Minister and his advisor(s). After (specifically) the last few days, if you think those 2 have any idea of safety over and above the overwhelming evidence to the contrary, then you're not saveable I'm afraid.
We are living through an absolute catastrophe and putting a defence of it is unwarranted,
