What has the UK government done in response? They smugly noted that the UN has no power to enforce its recommendations, then they implemented yet more cuts.
Enough time has passed to allow a different approach to viewing mortality via excess mortality. For those who might find it of interest, https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/excess-mortality-p-scores?year=earliest&time=2020-01-05..2020-08-16 The link is very user friendly, allowing to add and remove countries within the data set, setting date ranges, while accommodating for chart, map, and table views.

Is that a real concern? Yeah. The anti-vaxxers have been targetting the UK Indian/Pakistani communities saying that there is pork derived substances in the vaccines. Unfortunately the elderly in these communities are the ones less likely to be able to speak English and get proper information.I'm beginning to think we need to put the faces of anti-vaxxers into the same face punching category as fascists.

That's really messed up. At least all the other stuff sounds ridiculous. That's why I was wondering if it's a real concern.
