According to AgeUK "An average of 8,000 people die from flu in England each year".
According to worldometer there have been 41,637 Covid19 deaths in the UK so far this year and we're still in mid September and with special contention measures in place but no vaccine.
It is estimated we currently have around 60,000 Covid related deaths in the UK. This before we enter the dark days in a couple of months of the dreaded second wave, which could see off as many as 85,000 in 3 months in a recent worst case scenario prediction by sage.UK Department of Health estimates 17,000 average flu deaths per annum in recent years, so statistics, as always, seem to vary greatly.
"Covid deaths" seems to mean deaths where Covid was present, but not necessarily the cause of death.
Did you watch the link I posted ? I felt the data was presented in a pragmatic way.
Not a chance.
Why not??
What does vaporising CBD mean?
The situation in Portland in terms of air pollution seems appalling. It has got the worst quality of air in the world at the moment, I think.
I've got some friends who live in Portland, although I've never been. The current pollution and the BLM demos means it has been in for a really heavy time in the last few months.

I think in order to qualify as a fuse, it has to blow before the wiring it protects melts or ignites.
I put CBD only cannabis (no THC) in a dynavap vaporiser. About 0.05g once or twice a day.
There are air quality monitoring stations here, I think they measure micrograms of PM2.5 particles per cubic metre of air. The scale goes up to 500 - above 300 is the hazardous end of the scale above unhealthy and very unhealthy. It's been over 500 for most of the last week.
I lived in Portland once before on 07-08. It was much more fun that time around.
I have absolutely no idea.What are you escaping from, or compensating for?
I couldn’t agree more.I have absolutely no idea.
The first British guy to contact Covid in Wuhan is well documented. A 27 year old who kept fit & was in peak condition. It nearly finished him off so i wouldn't presume anything with this virus.The point of my post was merely that despite having certain illnesses it's not an immediate death sentence, the 'just saying' was to highlight it was in part jest.
I'm also not passing up the the vaccine, but i will do given the chance until it's been proven to be safe after a couple of years if possible - is this not sensible. I'm very fit, i don't see why i should compromise that by putting something in my body that i am uncertain about.
Hmmm... That's exactly how I felt.
When I caught it I was 43, in good physical condition from exercise and hadn't had more than the odd cold for about ten years.
I got sick enough that one day while contemplating how difficult and shallow my breathing had become, I wondered if I was going to stop completely. I was too delirious at the time to realise I should probably have called an ambulance. Six months on I still have lung and stomach problems.

I suppose it depends on whether you want the needle or the possibility of the ventilator. Not to mention having it will protect your family, friends & colleagues.
There will be no miracle cure for Covid. A vaccine, if & when released should protect for 12 months at the very least. Most dying are in the 50 to 60 range so at 53 i would certainly prefer this than hoping my fitness will protect me. It won't, nothing will protect you against Covid, only a fully tested vaccine will do this.So why do you think this Cov19 jab will be some miracle that they are pushing through?
Maybe look after yourself a bit better and stop relying or preying for this miracle cure.
