the Sky news digest of the latest Office for National Statistics data (with their excess deaths figures being the ones the evil UK government is least able to falsify).

Coronavirus: UK has seen 64,000 excess deaths since ...

noting that they think the apparant uptick in deaths is actually due to a reporting glitch rather than a resurgence in infections - but even rearranging the graph to put some of those deaths earlier would mean it hasn't returned to anywhere near the baseline level of deaths.

crunching the numbers: 64000 excess deaths is very close to 1 in 1000 of the population. Note that the sampling survey of the population had about 1/16 people having been infected at some point. This means we've possibly got another 15 times that many people to lose (although maybe a higher proportion of the most vulnerable were in the first subset).

the official UK population is about 67 million. The estimated infection level was about 6.7% which means 4.5 million people "processed". 64k / 4.5M = a mortality rate of about 1.4% but it takes time to die, so things might be even worse unless that's most of our old people gone already.

and this abrupt easing of lockdown restrictions ahead of schedule was apparently against the advice of the Joint Biosecurity Unit (which had itself been set up to replace the health group opposing some government plans):
