So the stats vary depending on where you look but let's say even at 0.5% of the UK population die from Coronavirus we're looking at roughly 325,000 people.
Let's say we're at a fifth or sixth of that figure so far and there's still no vaccine or cure after 8 months.

Where does that leave us?
Twiddling on for another four years till it's taken every one it's going to or do we just let it loose and get it out of the way?
 
Interesting stats for you.

Average age of death from covid is 82.5 , compared to average age of death in general , 81.5.

It's starting to become a pattern that everywhere in the world no matter if it's a small or large number, age plays a huge part in cases, 65 upwards.

Biggest underlying cause of death thus far, dementia.

There is plenty of patterns in the data to suggest that locking everyone away may not be the best plan going forward for the country , but here we are still.

We won't see anywhere near that level of deaths. I think this is a misinterpretation of the situation. Despite the increased positive tests, deaths havent gone up in accordance with that. We got so many deaths the first time around because it could spread in places where at risk people were before anyone knew what was going on. Now we know cases and deaths aren't following, probably because people are too young to die in that bracket.
