Fear of Covid may not be subsiding in the U.K., but the virus is. New Government data shows that a third of Britain has seen zero Covid deaths so far in the month of April. Some areas have gone even longer without reporting a single Covid death – 57 days in Plymouth and two whole months in Oxford and Maidstone. MailOnline has the story.
Around 22 million people are living in areas across the U.K. where there have been no Covid deaths so far in April, official figures revealed today.
Data from the Government’s Covid dashboard suggests the threat of the virus has almost been eradicated in a third of the country, despite everyone still being subjected to harsh lockdown restrictions.
It marks a seismic shift from the U.K.’s dire situation in January at the height of the second wave, when fewer than 50,000 Britons were in places with zero coronavirus victims during that month.
Analysis by BBC News shows some areas have gone even longer than a month without reporting a Covid death – Plymouth last recorded one 57 days ago and Oxford and Maidstone, in Kent, have gone two months.
The statistics, which go up to April 29th, show fewer than 600 deaths within 28 days of a positive test have been reported this month, compared with more than 30,000 throughout the same period in January.
More than half (56%) of local authorities in Scotland haven’t yet recorded a virus fatality this April, with only Glasgow posting more than nine so far.
In England 44% of authorities are yet to record one. The areas are scattered all over the country, showing how the situation is improving everywhere and is not limited to certain regions…
England faces at least seven more weeks of restrictions. June 21st has been earmarked as the earliest possible date that most curbs can be lifted. The rest of the U.K. has yet to announce when it will drop measures.
Given the waning of Covid across much of the U.K., along with the success of the vaccine rollout and the damage which continues to be inflicted on so many aspects of our lives because of lockdown, how can the Government continue to justify the implementation of lockdown measures until June 21st (at the earliest)?
The MailOnline report is worth reading in full.

“… how can the Government continue to justify the implementation of lockdown measures until June 21st”
It doesn’t have to. It has found that you can fool nearly all the people all of the time.
We have learned how the Germany of the 1930s happened, why transparent ‘phone scams are profitable, and why Derren Brown is successful.
… but do shut up about the ‘success of the vaccine roll-out’ – it’s part of the scam (as the continued impositions prove conclusively), and one of its main objectives.
Covid seems also to absolve the government ( and opposition, remember them?) from doing anything else that is actually useful.
Dream scenario for them really.
I think it’s certainly possible that the death and case numbers would have plummeted just as much if no one had gotten the vaccine in the last 90 days.
of course
Exactly. There is little essential difference in the shapes of the April and the January curves.
Maybe January’s numbers would be much lower were it not for the shot.
I think you may well be right. If you look at the autumn curve, there is a double peak.
The first peak suggests the beginning of a decline in the normal autumn surge. There is then a steep uptick that correlates pretty well with the spread of the ‘vaccines’.
Indeed, yes!
Local Live (mirror group news) item #34 ‘No Covid patients in 3 of the 4 County hospitals”, none for two, three and four weeks respectively.
There are 11 patients in the main regional hospital, none in ITU.
The word ‘death’ does not appear anywhere so presumably none in the recent past.
My area – population 174,900 last had a death ‘with’ covid on 25th March
anybody who wears a mask is a moron
the entire of Bucks 16 ‘cases’ a day.
this can’t be about the virus
Why do people keep questioning whether this is about the virus? It’s easy enough, look up Agenda 21 and 30 for goodness sake.
Actually, pretty much the same could have been said last June when weekly deaths dropped to normal.
Are the red areas labour strongholds?
Try the Express, the whole country varies from blood red to cerise.
they will find another reason to keep us locked up so they can collect more for their shares in facebook and apple
If only that was the reason.
It would be interesting to know if “cause of death” reporting by doctors varies according to vaccine status of the deceased. If it’s known the person was vaccinated, are they much less likely to have “covid” somewhere on the death certificate, even if they had any of the “classic” symptoms before they died. We know that many unvaccinated people were put down as covid deaths when there was little evidence they were.
Excellent point!
“Shipman certificates”, in effect. The ONS glossary lets them get away with it.
