Well as long as accuracy is maintained Steve it doesn't matter either way then.

Of course there are conspiracy theories abounding, however if you consider that between mid April up until the change of death reporting in July if you had previously been diagnosed as Covid positive, then death for any other reason was counted as a Covid fatality.

The reduction to 28 days was a step in the right direction, however this still quite rightly leaves the figures open to scrutiny.
