Is anyone else reassured by the death rates??

Is it just me?

I feel so reassured about the fact that the death rates are staying so low.

Each death is obviously a tragedy, I’m not dismissing that, but the fact that 1000’s of lives aren’t being lost a day anymore is such a blessing for many families.

Cases are going up, as was always going to happen, but the death rate staying so low each day is such a relief.

I’m relieved the vaccines must be working and I’m so happy for the all the the families in society who are no longer being ripped apart by losing their loved ones to such a horrible virus.

Maybe it’s because the sun is shining very beautifully where I am, but I’m feeling very positive this morning

We shall see won't we.

But the government (and general public) most definitely won't be able to say they weren't warned.

Btw scientists including Chris Whitty have been misquoted. They haven't recommend opening up with no mitigation measures, when we haven't yet reached majority double vaccinated, whilst cases are rising. Read what they actually say. They acknowledge that regardless of whether it's sensible or the right things to do, people especially the ring wing of the government want to do it. That's very different from saying it's what should happen.

And the experts at the WHO advise opening up WITH mitigation measures. Like masks.
