To say only 17,000 people have died from COVID-19 is highly misleading
It’s being claimed that the true number of deaths caused by COVID-19 in England and Wales is ‘only’ around 17,000 people. The claim is based on ONS data on the number of coronavirus deaths where no other health conditions were noted on the death certificate. However, as James Tucker explains, to suggest that figure represents the real extent of deaths from the virus is both factually incorrect and highly misleading.
