This is significant; the UK government is now taking the line that Covid is now less deadly than the flu, due to the low mortality of Covid Omicron, killing merely one in every 3,300 people who get infected, having about the same mortality of the seasonal flu, which is between 0.01 and 0.05 percent. The thing is, Covid has always been about as deadly as a bad flu, and there was little reason for the over-the-top lockdowns. Sweden did fine without engaging in this freak-out. As we know, the reasons have never been epidemiological, but in terms of political control.
