Let's think a bit harder about why people might be dying in excess at the moment. Look what happened in spring to visits to A&E for heart attacks and angina.
Levels dropped to 60% of normal. People will have died because of that whether it was from fear or lockdowns. We are now creating fear and having lockdowns again. What is happening to deaths?
Here are excess deaths for people with heart attacks
Here are excess deaths from people with strokes.
And here are excess deaths from acute respiratory infections. COVID deaths stopped in spring. We need to return to a functioning society with functioning healthcare to prevent these other deaths.
