Has Spain got the 2nd wave ?

Locally young healthy people have died of coronavirus

But how many in comparison to other age groups and those with already compromised health? Are they unfortunate outliers in the statistics?

Young healthy people also die of flu and pneumonia every year too, about 150 15-44 year olds per year according to a report I found from 2013 (plus another 800 or so who have other health conditions), but that's not considered enough to offer annual flu jabs to all under 45 year olds to protect them.

Bottom line, the truth of cv19 case and death statistics will not be available for a couple of years yet (if ever) and while what's currently published is thought-provoking reading, there's not much any of us can do apart from maintain our own personal biosecurity however many 'waves' happen. Personally, I am more concerned about what's happening to the economy and social fabric of the UK thanks to government dithering and inconsistency.

Melbourne was reputed to be due to a security guard paid to be watching the inbound quarantined people, “befriending“ (ahem) one and then doing double shifts elsewhere in the city.

Keeping those vulnerable away from the rest, use masks and hand washing to reduce transmission and letting it run slowly through the rest of us. No other choice
