One disease kills over half a million in the EU each year – and it's not COVIDToday the EU marks International Heart Day – we bring you the official Brexit facts?© Brexit Facts4EU.Org 2020Heart disease kills almost three times as many EU & UK citizens as COVIDThe EU has just published a report to mark International Heart Day today, 29 Sept 2020.The latest data which has been published by the EU shows figures for 2016 and includes the United Kingdom. Among the 4.5 million deaths reported in the European Union in 2016, more than half a million were due to coronary diseases, including heart attacks.BREXIT FACTS4EU.ORG SUMMARYEU deaths from heart disease (2016): 542,700EU deaths 'with' COVID (2020 to date) : 188,499Total EU deaths in 2016 from all causes: 4,527,500?© Brexit Facts4EU.Org - click to enlargeCurrent ratio of heart disease deaths to 'with COVID' deaths: 2.9 to 1And heart disease is only the third most common cause of deathWhere does the UK sit? The facts on heart disease across the EUAt EU level, the standardised rate of deaths from coronary heart diseases stood at 1,194 deaths per million inhabitants in 2016. Men were almost twice as likely to die from coronary heart diseases as women, with 1,625 deaths per million for men compared to 881 deaths per million for women.The likelihood of dying from heart disease varies dramatically across the EU. (We have shown the UK as it was still a member state in 2016.)?© Brexit Facts4EU.Org - click to enlargeOBSERVATIONSHeart disease is not the main killer in the EU and UK. In fact it's the third most common cause of death, after cancer and dementia. COVID-19 is of course way down the list, as we have previously reported.Nevertheless, it is International Heart Day and the EU have marked this. We felt it only right to do the same, but felt that readers might like to see a comparison with COVID-19.In these troubled times facts are important for the public. Sadly the 'facts' from the likes of Sir Patrick Vallance and Professor Chris Whitty at this week's press conference were lamentable, to say the least. Their absurd conjecture of an exponential explosion in COVID has already proved to be nonsense, with 'case' numbers dropping ever since they made their announcement.Below is the latest chart for deaths 'with COVID' from the Government, as of yesterday.?© HMG - click to enlargeWe hope we have provided information which informs the public debate and which lends a sense of proportion to the doom-mongering daily news from the BBC and other broadcasters.As ever, we will be returning to our usual specialism of Brexit in our coming articles. If you can help us to keep going in the fight for a fully free, independent and sovereign United Kingdom, you will find quick, secure, and confidential donation methods below this article.

careful - pretty accurate IMO.

[grahamite2] 29/9/2020 10:44

You're right, careful, that The Daily Telegraph is indistinguishable from The Guardian these days, just another leftist propaganda sheet.

The rest of your post is, of course, drivel.

[careful] 29/9/2020 10:39

Amazing how the Daily Telegraph has turned against Boris Johnson.

The need to survive.
Their readership will have turned against him and will stop buying this propaganda rag.

I read the Telegraph for years, but I could not stand their brainwashing and absence of impartiality any more.
So I quit my subscription.

Never a week goes by when I am not bombarded with E mails with special offers.
I am the one that got away, and there must be thousands of us.

Most on this thread hated Bercow,he was a thorn in Boris Johnson side when he tried to bye pass parliament. (As he still is.)

Johnson is as vindictive as hell, a nasty piece of work.We knew that by his treatment of the likes of Ken Clark and Christopher Soames.

but to deny Bercow his traditional gong, after holding a centuries old office, at the same time awarding his invisible brother knighthood is despicable.

We are in trouble with this idiot, and I voted for him.
No choice.

[alphorn] 29/9/2020 10:35

lef - we have a different measure.

[maxk] 29/9/2020 10:21

And that will be the end of him.

[grahamite2] 29/9/2020 10:18

I looked it up, Alphorn, and an image rights company is taxed the same as any other company.

Although an image rights company could also be a personal services company, and they are pretty much dead in the water these days.

[alphorn] 29/9/2020 09:57

G2 - PSC's should be stopped as well! Same idea I think - I was hoping that you could shine some light.

[grahamite2] 29/9/2020 09:54

Alphorn, are you perhaps talking about personal service companies?

[grahamite2] 29/9/2020 09:53

lefrene, what track record so far? He's had a go at wokism and at foreign aid and at the BBC and at quangos generally. I think he's done rather well on everything except this virus.

So far there's every indication that the team dealing with Brexit are light years apart from the borderline traitors handling it before. I am reasonably confident.

[alphorn] 29/9/2020 09:50

G2 - I thought that you might - all I know it that it moves 'salary' into a vehicle taxed at corporation tax rates instead of 'vanilla' salary. Hope stopped.

[grahamite2] 29/9/2020 09:48

Alphorn, I don't know what Image Rights companies are.

[alphorn] 29/9/2020 09:45

Warning - on topic. August mortgage approvals well up.

[alphorn] 29/9/2020 09:41

Your definition of success of course.

[alphorn] 29/9/2020 09:39

cheshire - I hope not. IMO there will be movement from both sides. Will have to wait and see.

[cheshire pete] 29/9/2020 09:33

Don't think Gove will give ground on fishing, lets hope he stands firm on everything else.

[cheshire pete] 29/9/2020 09:30

....'And I'd ask for a big discount for cash!'.......and try going back 6 months later and get work done under warranty, that's if there is one.

[alphorn] 29/9/2020 09:26

More confidence in Gove for these types of negotiations.
