Calls to domestic abuse helplines up 49%, domestic murders increased 3 fold.
Prof Nutjob Ferguson predicted 200 million deaths from bird flu in 2005, there were a few hundred only, worldwide. Oh yes our leading SAGE boffin!

A&E depts quieter than ever because people too afraid to get treatment in case they catch something which maybe no worse than flu. Flu, that we don’t even routinely test for, or attribute as possible cause of death!

Fiasco 🤬
There will be lots of finger pointing when all of this is over. There will be the usual public inquiry, (with lawyers making lots of money of course) but as is usual in public life, "lessons will be learned". Nobody will end up accountable and dangling by their neck at the end of a rope. The so called "experts" who are all so knowledgeable that they rarely agree with each other will quietly slink back to their safe jobs in academic institutions. The government will align behind Boris, who will do his best bluff and bluster act of "piffle....balderdash....quod erat demonstrandum.... phwaaaahhhh!!"
The mantra will be that they all "did their best" under the circumstances. The fact it wasn't good enough won't matter, it never does for any of the "institutional ilk". Not one of them will lose their livelihood.
