The comparative figures for deaths of people with Covid

For sure. But probably not those over 80 nor those in care homes. I'm not suggesting a forensic exercise to work out the number of actual 'from' Covid deaths, I'm just suggesting it's likely a small fraction of the 'with' Covid deaths . . and that we should now be applying/easing restrictions based on hospital bed/ICU availability.
It's also hard to know the real infection trend since we are constantly changing our testing and track and trace system. It is fair to say that if we now have the same detected infection rates as last year then the real infection rate is far lower as we are testing and tracking much more now than we did then.
