    Can't read more than the first line of that due to the paywall. However, given the Telegraph has been against the lockdown for a while I would be suspicious of political spin. Can you point to the peer-reviewed research please?

    It's a Government report from a combination of Department of Health, the Office for National Statistics, the Actuary's Department and the Home Office.

    As an aside - I don't remember you asking for peer-review of Ferguson's fantastical research when they wouldn't release the ancient code to their spurious claims which the whole lockdown was based on.

    It’s from Sky News not the Torygraph...

    Was that Ferguson's research from Imperial, or the independent research from two other British Universities (One was Edinburgh iirc, can't remember the other) that aligned with it? If you wanted a practical example of what would happen without the lockdown, try Brazil or USA where cases are increasing exponentially and over 200,000 have died so far (between them).

    was trying to make sense of this but I guess you are talking to someone I’ve muted!

    No one aligned anywhere near to Ferguson - it's pointless arguing with you if you're going to make stuff up. Both Edinburgh and Oxford were miles off Ferguson's fantastical figures. This "peer review" you're asking for - when Imperial were peer reviewed no one could understand how on Earth they'd produced such utter nonsense.

    Can I please do a request Jimmy? You post quite a lot of links, generally ones I find interesting but could you please write a sentence summarising what they are about? Or at least the headline? A lot of the time I can't be bothered clicking/don't want to waste data if there's a few of them in a row which you sometimes do - and I bloody love reading stuff. I'm sure more people would read them and you'd have an easier job of getting your point of view across if you gave some indication of what the link is about.
