phart Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 To be fair governments generally use the powers they have. All the covid deaths have been counted and categorised etc, UK pretty much has the best reporting on all sorts of things stats wise. MEthodology all explained etc. Teams of actuaries monitoring them, independent mathematicians, doctors etc. It's pretty far away from being a nonsense.
