Is this because of social distancing, mask wearing, hand washing,
fear or inability to get to a GP, or something else ?


probably because all the people who actually died of flu were diagnosed
a dying of Covid


The deaths from Covid figures only apply to those who have tested
positive.


...including those run over by a bus within 28 days of a positive test.



While some of that will inevitably be true, i.e. they died with covid
rather than necessarily from it, there is also a group of people who
died free from covid but because of it.

This could en up being a very large number when you factor in all those
deaths resulting from the inability (or reluctance) access healthcare,
and preventative treatment and screening, let alone the economic and
mental health effects.
