Re: Still confused about the 90%

Let's be clear to start with that people dying of cancer and other conditions because they couldn't get to hospital would have been in that situation anyway, hospitals (especially staff) were overloaded and had the additional burden of trying to deal with infection control while having staff self isolate too.

I call bullshit on that. I was in hospital during the height of the first lockdown. All the nurses were saying that they had far less work than usual and that they had never seen A&E so quiet. They had great concern that people were unnecessarily failing to get treatment. My local GP surgery was closed - and that was not because it was overwhelmed. The doctors and staff were at home no working.
