Well, it looks like the death rate is no longer trending down. It's
way up. I cannot describe how disappointing this is, although as above
I was cautious about the oddly reducing rate in the last few days. I
thought it was too good to be true.
According to
https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/coronavirus-uk-death-toll-rises-to-1808-after-393-die-in-record-daily-surge/ar-BB11XXbw
(aggregated from The Independent) there were 383 deaths in one day. It
is not clear whether or not this includes the earlier 'missing' deaths
that have recently been reported being added in one day. Sadly I
suspect it is genuinely new deaths.
It's an absolutely shocking increase on previous days.
