I found this.

statswales.gov.wales/Catalogue/Health-and-Social-Care/NHS-Hospital-Activity/nhs-activity-and-capacity-during-the-coronavirus-pandemic/admissions-by-date-patientype

Two admissions exclusively. Someone is telling porkies.

What the heck? Why are the beds declining? Cant we take some of that few hundred billion and upgrade hospital capacities instead of having to suffer again come the end of the year?

The ONS has a transparency report, surely these numbers are incorrect? How can less than 350 people under the age of 55 died exclusively?

That's exactly the same as the government dashboard: coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/healthcare?areaType=nation&areaName=Wales.

No idea, but the changes look minor and it's common for numbers to change with reorganisation or repairs from time to time. Ask the relevant health trust or your elected representatives.

You're looking at figures of deaths reported up until early January and missing the second wave entirely!! You're also imagining that people with a condition like diabetes would otherwise be likely to die this year, which isn't factual. Deaths have always been reported by ONS and the government, try looking at recent data.

This.

It would be nice if these ageist and ableist (and ignorant) posts would stop, but nevermind.

Millions of people under 55 have an underlying condition.

What's the relevance of under 55 btw?
What happens at 55? Do people stop being part of society?

Newsflash. Over 55s are parents (many still have children at school), grandparents, aunts and uncles, daughters and sons, cousins, colleagues, and friends.

Some of the posts over the last year, I'm beginning to think that people over 5& and/or with underlying conditions should stop paying tax. If they're so disposable, so can be their tax money.
