I didn’t see that, the CMO from the outset said comparisons were not helpful. They did compare themselves and our numbers included care homes whereas others didn’t. So they weren’t scared of showing themselves poorly against others.
They still aren’t as not everyone are using the same metrics.
No one could possibly know what a “good “ outcome for the U.K. would or could have been.
It’s like asking before Dday “how many people do you expect to die on the beach in Normandy? “ and then being critical if the under or over estimate the figure.
