The UK press has been pumping up a story that Covid-19 is killing a disproportionate number of “BAME” (Black And Minority Ethnic) people.
Unmentioned (and I know this personally from friends in the UK) has been a devastating impact on British Jews.
This simple analysis (performed by a Professor in Risk Information Management) breaks it down.
His work discusses whether there are other factors beyond age (which is accounted for) at play here. However, when Jewish deaths are so far ahead of others, there won't be much change in relative levels even with other factors brought in.
"Black people are more than four times more likely to die from Covid-19 than white people, according to stark official figures exposing a dramatic divergence in the impact of the coronavirus pandemic in England and Wales."
It discovered that after taking into account age, measures of self-reported health and disability and other socio-demographic characteristics, black people were still almost twice as likely as white people to die a Covid-19-related death.
Nowhere in their report do they mention the massively disproportionate effect of Covid-19 on Jews in the UK.
In this way they're trying make a link to racism with skin colour and point out some link to poverty and immigrants working in NHS, a constant media drum beat and a firm agenda with the far-left media.
"Antisemitism" (Jew hatred) isn't worth a mention in reporting like this probably because they can't find an angle.
Just to compare, the fatality rate here in Israel is 3.8 per 100,000 for the entire population. In the UK, Jews died at a rate of 139 per 100,000 Jews in the UK population. Horrific.
It seems like the UK's Gov & NHS perpetrated a catastrophic failure especially in care homes safe.
