‘Coronavirus: random figures are scattered in the wind’

• AROUND 1,600 people die every day in the UK, most of them elderly with a combination of health problems.

Random figures are scattered in the wind describing an ever increasing number of them as dying of coronavirus. Soon we will conclude that they all do.

Presumably it will be much easier for civil servants and managers to administer the NHS if there is only one cause of death. Assuming that we all die of the same thing makes the paperwork easier.
