Just to explain: Now that the UK has the highest European number of deaths, it becomes necessary to explain how the UK's numbers are exaggeratedl y high and the foreign ones fiddled too low. Any number of suggestions on how this can be achieved have been put forward - take your pick, none of them are convincing. Those who died with Covid 19 pathogens in their body...

It's important to note that this depends on all nation's figures being directly comparable, which is not really true. Until we have a proper picture, which may be months from now, there's no certainty about whether more people have died from/because of Covid-19 in the UK or in, say, Spain/Italy.
That doesn't necessarily mean that the question isn't worth asking. At the end of February/early March the story was how we were "three weeks" behind Italy in terms of the outbreak progression, and it's right to ask whether or not the Government made the best use of those three weeks. But a true answer about what went wrong will have to wait for the public enquiry that really must be held at some point.

agreeish wiv JIm
best answer - or as Barmaid said - not the best answer but always the right answer
Hi JIm ! - I am beginning to suffer from " why modelling works" fatigue or - "why changing the I.C.s doesnt invalidate a model per se" fatigue. We know for example that 90% ABers cannot get past the first word ( why?)
BUT - I dont think you can have a hit parade of deaths. About as much use as putting the same countries in alphabetic order and then saying it means something
(OK you can order them. but then attaching a significance is not automatic. Unless in the set of possible significances, you have an element "not significant" but then .....)
and secondly I dont think there is a need for a public inquiry. They dont do anything - so it is like Lock down ! hur hur hur Joke! Joke! (Naomi tell him I joke a lot!). The Bloody Sunday inquiry cost £200m. - that was no joke - and a bloody lot of money ! ( two more jokes)
since there were er hem hem 14 dead ( piffle as NJ wd say and has ! see other threads)[oops another joke there] - I suggested that just give £10m to each dead family and pocket the rest. The lawyer looked at me in disbelief and said "no that isnt how it works at all"
no indeedy
no wonder I spend all morning doing Latin

Problem is Gromit, the NHS is not well funded and has never been
The idea of a free health service is admirable but it has to be paid for somewhere along the line.
It's has always been used as a Politically pawn rather than a health service.
As I have always argued on AB this will have to change and it will after this pandemic

//maybe now we should be stocking in vast quantities of the right stuff for this type of infection cause //
yeah but how big a stockpile, and when to buy? this stuff has a finite shelf life - if we don't have another pandemic for 3 years, anything we stockpile now will have to go in the bin before it's needed.

well written Jim - bon mot - ! la parola e ben trovata ! verb sap !
do you feel that lecturing at uni or school is like putting your head into an oven and turning the gas on? or er writing on AB ?
a skool teacher said to me: "well at least when you are speaking your audience arent trying to stuff stethoscopes and other medical instruments up each others bottoms"
and I admitted that perhaps I hadnt lived .....

no or yes - you can turn over the stock - and keep tabs
store house mgt comes into accountancy ( the stock is an expense but is mainly carried over until the next accounting period ) and you someone found 1913 that there is a minimum cost
