That graph is for deaths in hospital, not total deaths in England/UK.
There was no wave of death pre March. It was just a slow spread and the deaths wouldn't have stood out amongst flu deaths. However the spread was exponential and that resulted in the dramatic peak in March/April. Also you might need to factor in the Asian version of the virus and the mutated European version which came later around Feb and possibly spreads faster.
Masks might be redundant in the UK as we aren't far off heard immunity, but they are taking no chances because they can't afford another lockdown this winter.
It's okay if you don't understand the science behind, as it seems a lot scientists themselves don't seem to understand fuck all either. Just put any shitty mask on in the shops and go about your business.
Really they’ve Taken chances all the way through this scam - Here’s a few points for you.
Then why 3mnths on is there a need for masks in shops only ?
They weren’t wearing masks on the London Underground & buses all the way through
And if Masks are so Good why they let some prisoners out early
Or we can’t go visit relatives in care homes if we wear a mask.
Far to many inconsistencies & double standards - it’s a Farce.
