[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are U.K. deaths so high? Is it that widespread, and they are profoundly under testing? Or has it hit a much more vulnerable population?[/quote]

The U.K. delayed acting upon the impending coronavirus threat. Boris wanted to take a wait and see approach hoping that “herd immunity” would stop the spread. He was wrong and now it’s too late...[/quote]

They have 60 million people and 3,000 deaths and 34,000 positive cases. The government also believes they will peak around April 12. All in all, not too bad.

The herd immunity will stop the spread. It's a question of time. The shutdown and flattening the curve only prolongs the inevitable. [/quote]

They are a complete mess!!!! I have been reading British papers for a while and saw this train wreck coming. They kept pushing the "herd immunity" crap for a while with zero social distancing guidelines or test prepping. Brits flying to Spain and partying hard even 1 week ago. Large festivals were still on, large pub gatherings to get one last drink before closures, and then the crazy run on supermarkets and people packed like sardines, the subway service decimated and people packed on like sardines. The testing is a complete disaster, there are both test shortages and a mismanagement of testing process.

No way it peaks April 12.[/quote]
