Annual death rates in the UK ranged from around 550000 to 615000 in the period 2011 to 2018
www.statista.com/statistics/281478/death-rate-united-kingdom-uk/
This works out at around 1500 -1600 deaths per day ( although I realise these are not evenly distributed )
Is it possible to determine what proportion of the covid 19 deaths are “extra deaths” ie how many of the people who have died/will die would have been expected to die within the next few months without this virus?
