Re: The Oxford paper doesn't say 60% is really enough

It looks worrying, but we don't know how many of these people would have died soon anyway. Something which clears hospices and care homes of their weaker residents a few days, weeks or even months early is not the same as something cutting a swathe through the young, fit population.

The BBC is careful to report the death of a cute child or a much loved nurses every day, presumably to keep us all safely locked up as we should be, but the fact is that most of those dying were circling the drain anyway.
