During all the furious arguments about the cancellation of HS2, why has nobody mentioned the utter stupidity of having high-speed trains in a tiny country like England, asks David Craig.
Of the 15 countries with zero or negative excess mortality, no less than 14 are islands. After two years of lockdowns, it seems the best strategy for dealing with Covid is… be a small country with few land borders.
Excess mortality is high in Latin America, moderate in Europe, low in East Asia and low in island nations. This suggests geography matters more than lockdowns when it comes to explaining COVID-19's lethality.
