Most big media organizations are finally getting round to cover this in-depth.
It is - in my view & as I’ve said many times - a bigger scandal than lack of PPE in hospitals.
The full extent of fatalities is likely never to be known. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-52275823

Worth looking at this chart:
The figures only include England & Wales.
& only include deaths up to week 14 (last week of March/start of April).
It doesn’t take a genius to work out the fatalities figure is nearer 20 000.
