Also reported on Newsnight that the Department for Health changed the way the death stats are compiled so the figures now require family consent to be included, so todays total is just for deaths today but lags as it captures some they only just consent for but also excludes some
This is really worrying - it means we simply can't trust the figures. Or will they release the true figure a few days later?
Dammit
