There were 1,032 deaths observed to have taken place on the 11th of January,
The government puts out two data series on deaths at this link:Observed by who and were these verified to have taken place on January 11th?...As you have pointed out to me these deaths likely did not occur in that particular day, however since you did say they were 'observed' is it safe to say that the count of 1032 deaths was verified to have occurred on January 11th?...
...
The figures for the same five days with today's data are the following:The number of deaths by date of death for the most recent five days in the series are the following:
14-01-2021: 788
13-01-2021: 928
12-01-2021: 997
11-01-2021: 1,034
10-01-2021: 944
Another 1,610 deaths announced today in the UK. An average of 1,181 announced on each of the last seven days, or the per-capita equivalent of more than 5,700 per day in the US, to give you some idea. The greatest number of deaths on a single day, by date of death, stands at 1,064, on the 11th of January. The country is in a fairly hard national lockdown, however, and the rate of new infections seems to have peaked, but the daily death toll shall likely not peak for another couple of weeks. This might give you some idea of what to expect in other countries with new mutant strains, if they do not get a good handle on the situation, and in the absence of widespread vaccine coverage.
Maybe ????It seems pretty apparent now that Covid is here to stay, we have mutations that have a good potential to overturn vaccination efforts and with some mutations that are seemingly more deadly as well as more contagious...We have to figure out a plan moving forward based on this reality because staying sheltered in homes long term isn't a viable option...

This document from the British government's New and Emerging Respiratory Virus Threats Advisory Group (NERVTAG) suggests that the finding that the Kent variant is more deadly comes from at least three different sources, and mentions a study by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, which found a hazard ratio of 1.35; an Imperial College study which found hazard ratios of 1.36 and 1.29 when applying different statistical analyses to the data; and a University of Exeter study which found a hazard ratio of 1.91. The 95% confidence intervals around each of these figures were 1.08-1.68, 1.18-1.56, 1.07-1.54, and 1.35-2.71, respectively. The range contained within all four CIs is 1.35-1.54.However, Sir Patrick Vallance, the Government's chief scientific officer, played down Mr Hancock's concerns and said it was "too early" to know what effect the strain would have on the vaccination.
He pointed out that even the data suggesting the Kent variant was 30 per cent more deadly was based on just one paper, when others showed no increase and said: "What we could end up with is that the current vaccines still protect to a large degree against severe disease and dying."
Wasn't the Spanish Flu pandemic the emergence of H1N1 influenza? H1N1 is still endemic to the world and is one of the seasonal influenzas. The swine flu pandemic in 2009 was a strain of H1N1.Maybe ????
But I asked this last year, even posted a movie on this site about the Spanish Flu of 1918-20 when they had no vaccines and few effective drugs to treat it.
It started out like Covid with a milder version that made a lot of people sick but killed relativity few. And then came back the next year with a kill rate that has been estimated to be as high as fifty million dead worldwide !!!
But then, and I'm still asking for the reason - It just disappeared,
why ???
