'I couldn't imagine a better guidebook for making sense of a tragic
and momentous time in our lives. Covid by Numbers is comprehensive
yet concise, impeccably clear and always humane' Tim Harford How
many people have died because of COVID-19? Which countries have
been hit hardest by the virus? What are the benefits and harms of
different vaccines? How does COVID-19 compare to the Spanish flu?
How have the lockdown measures affected the economy, mental health
and crime? This year we have been bombarded by statistics - seven
day rolling averages, rates of infection, excess deaths. Never have
numbers been more central to our national conversation, and never
has it been more important that we think about them clearly. In the
media and in their Observer column, Professor Sir David
Spiegelhalter and RSS Statistical Ambassador Anthony Masters have
interpreted these statistics, offering a vital public service by
giving us the tools we need to make sense of the virus for
ourselves and holding the government to account. In Covid by
Numbers, they crunch the data on a year like no other, exposing the
leading misconceptions about the virus and the vaccine, and
answering our essential questions. This timely, concise and
approachable book offers a rare depth of insight into one of the
greatest upheavals in history, and a trustworthy guide to these
most uncertain of times.
