I dont get this idea its ok as it's only 1% die. Every death is a tragedy, whether your 19 or 99.
Covid is a nasty disease, and the attitude of some is showing a selfishness that I personally find disappointing.
Well said, the most conservative of the three sets of official figures show 60,000 plus people have died of the virus this year, that's a full house in the Emirates Stadium or the population of places like Wrexham, Hereford and Widnes which I would say is a very large number by any standards.
