This article also explains why calculating the death toll, even of those that die in hospital, is complex.

If you read my post correctly you’ll find I made so such claim.

Unless you are claiming it’s possible for 250 000 people to die of Coronavirus (Government estimate that killed off the herd immunity idea) without having an adverse effect on other treatments/intensive care availability. That’d be truly quite astonishing.

The death toll may be challenging but the excess deaths is quite easy. Over the longer term we will find out if claims (without published evidence) that a sizeable proportion would have died anyway are reflected with less than expected death totals.
