Just weed out the real from the pretend CV deaths and the graph might be of value. It doesn't matter now: the numbnuts in Wastemonster have now gone onto the next smoke and mirrors exercise in hiding their incompetence. Their imaginary obesity crisis is as valid as AGW.

I'm not sure about the herd immunity issue. Hancock said that only about 5% of the country had antibodies, and 17% of Londoners. I would have thought that the antibody test was a better indication of herd immunity than the numbers of deaths and new cases. If the virus were a serious threat, could it have gone away for any reason other than herd immunity?

The most telling point in the video was the correlation between unemployment and premature deaths, and the obvious fact of empty hospitals meaning that people are not being treated. I think the "spike" will be more like a rounded bump, and will be a lot bigger than Boris envisaged.

Jannie - yes that's the point of the sudden upsurge of obesity propaganda. Deflect attention from the pandemic debacle as quickly as possible.

Sam - as things stand I agree with the video maker. To my mind his use of official cases and death graphs seems less problematic, more pragmatic and less dependent on theory than the antibody test. This may change of course.
