And this is my own attempt to graph 3 different sorts of figures for deaths per day.
The big gap between the ONS and others at the peak is the reason I couldnt take the others seriously.
Then later on, for a long time I assumed that the daily government figures (without 28 day limit) were running higher than the ONS ones because they were still catching up with some of the deaths they missed earlier, but I dont know if thats the actual and only reason why those number ended up higher than ONS ones after a certain point. The 28-day limit number has gotten the daily figure closer to the ONS figure, but for the wrong reasons.
Theres probably also differences between which nations are included in the figures, but I can overlook that at this stage o the pandemic since the number of daily deaths from Scotland etc is so low at the moment.
