I am still totally unconvinced that the government wants us to think the situation is worse than it is.
Only now have 30,000 double-counted cases been identified...

You got a link for that? Sounds like a pretty egregious cock-up.Only now have 30,000 double-counted cases been identified...

Your argument seems to be that scientists overstated how infectious and dangerous the disease was or would be, then the stats all backed that up with loads of infections and deaths, but you insist (with no evidence I've seen) that actually all the stats - official and otherwise - are wrong.
Yeah but as I explained above, I don't really care about "exclusively from Covid"
OK, I misread your earlier post as 30,000 *deaths* have been double-counted (although I think you were saying that the "true" covid-19 death toll is smaller than the "naive" excess death count by about this number).
I mean If someone dies who wouldn't have died otherwise but has an underlying condition it's perfectly reasonable to call that a death caused by Covid.Well, you should as it has a bearing on important decisions and people's states of mind.
For instance, my ma is over 70 but has no serious health problems...her IFR is 1% rather than the 20% that might apply to someone of the same age with diabetes.
Can you point out any leads for one to follow here? Or can I just search through databases?- mask-wearing is pretty much pointless and/or leads to worse outcomes (fiddling with masks transfers particles to face) (SAGE, PHE, UEA)

I don't think we can have proper mass adherence to precautionary measures without the anxiety
