How many deaths do you know of?

[Granolaslice]

I don’t know anyone personally who has died of this.
I know people who have tested positive. Both are nurses and both have had really mild symptoms.
I also think me and my partner had it close to lockdown starting. There are a couple of other people I know who ‘think’ they’ve had it too.
But I know no one who has died of it and don’t know anyone who knows anyone who has died of it!

none and don't know anyone who has had it either.

One of the friends who was hospitalised and recovered is currently suffering pretty badly and has been readmitted to hospital with breathing problems.

None and I hope it stays that way 😳

Two. My friends uncle (late 50s) and an acquaintance - late 20s

None, but I don't know very many people.

to everyone who has lost loved ones.

We’ve lost a loved one and I know two other people who have lost loved ones (although I didn’t know them).

We know several other people who have either recently tested positive or who were ill at the time when tests weren’t readily available who had all the symptoms and were really very ill. It’s close to home for us.

One. V sad.

None.

In our village/area, lots of bungalows, full of elderly, none.

My DM's care home, none. None of the staff have been off ill either.

I know a few people who have had it, a few young medics working in hospitals, and a few at DD's London office, but all very mildly. One friend in her 50's had it badly, but not hospitalised. She is fine now.

I know 14 - but my husband is a priest and has been doing their funerals (all elderly and most from within our congregation). NW England

One friend's Dad who I knew
One member of my cousin's husbands family
One friend of a friend
A friend's granny

So that's 4
All old except one & not sure how healthy he was.

And I know lots of people who have had it. I'm in london.

None. I know one person who has tested positive. I'm in London.

Friends of friends - 7 deaths. Three were still working in office-type employment (but may have caught it post-lockdown while wfh - not 100% sure).

I don’t know anyone either.

Neither that has died of it or officially had it.

I do know two people who have died during lockdown though, not from coronavirus.

I don’t know anyone who has had it let alone died from it.

I’m in London

Personally none and I am not the least bit surprised.

In the UK, and average of around 170,000 people a year die from cancer. Only one person in my immediate family has had cancer and she died in 1991 and no-one since. I know a few people who have had cancer but only 2 others that I know of personally have died from it.

So I am not at all surprised that I don't know anyone who has died of CV

2 people. Both caught it in a hospital. Went in for unrelated health issues not due to Covid.

None. I dont even know anyone who's definitely had it. A few people had symptoms in the early days, but back then weren't tested as they stayed at home.

Dont know of anybody to die either.

@Khione interesting point... my family seems disproportionately affected by cancer in that case.

A close relative died from it in their early 20s, My grandmother, me, my mum, my DH have all had cancer, all different kinds and in two cases extremely rare kinds.

I had always heard the stat that 1 in 2 people will have cancer and gone by that yardstick.

I live in Liverpool and I don't know anyone who have had it or has died. I know that my daughters classmates grandmas neighbour died of it. That's all. Somehow I can't believe that covid is that bad because no casualties.

One. A work colleague's father.

None, thankfully.

I don't know anyone who has died of it. I know of one person who had it and recovered (although it wasn't someone who I've ever actually met, but rather a relative of someone I know). I know of lots of people who think they might have had it, who never got tested and recovered quickly at home (but then some other people who were convinced they had it but tested negative for antibodies, so it might well have been something else entirely). I'm in London.

I know 2, one personally and one through work. I also know several who have lasting problems after having it.
