Covid Cases in UK Have Just Reached a New High — Not many dead

According to the Spectator, new Covid cases in the UK have reached a 7-day daily mean of almost 84,000.

Sounds bad, dunnit, as they used to say in my native Devonshire. But is it really such a big number?

It's estimated that adults in Britain get two to four colds every year, and children up to twice as many. That means around two hundred million colds a year in total, which averages out to over half a million a day. But then most colds are caught in the late fall to early spring, so at the present time of year one could expect in Britain about a million cases of the common cold per day.

So, in fact, this new, allegedly highly infectious, Omicron strain of Covid seems to be a bit of a slouch.

Moreover, it has only managed to kill one person in Britain thus far, or rather to have infected one subsequently deceased person whose actual cause of death has not been publicly disclosed, and may well not be known. Indeed, given the untrustworthness of the PRC Covid test still widely used in Britain, one cannot be at all sure whether this unfortunate person really had covid, or perhaps just a bad cold.

So, yes, it looks as though the British Government's main concern is to shill for Pfizer, Inc. and other makers of so-called "vaccines" that prevent neither infection nor transmission of Covid, of whatever the strain.

Time for the Brits to get back to normal life, which seems to be the view of voters in North Shropshire where, in a by-election, a Tory majority of 23,000 at the general election has been entirely washed away by the Lib-Dems, whoever they may be.

Meantime though, Professor Lockdown-for- you-but-not-for-me, Ferguson is driving up the fear factor, predicting 50,000 deaths a day, or hour, or whatever, if people don't shape up and act real scared.

It will be interesting to see what gives first. The public's nerve or the Government's.
