In articles here today they were going on about 170 deaths due to heatwave, if you didn’t read full article you would have missed that they were all drownings
Several thousand here but a lot of drownings too
Been hotter here than UK but not seen any mention of 1000’s of deaths here. Wonder how they allocate the deaths to summer? Bit of political manipulation like they did with covid perhaps?
I remember for years there were high death rates of old people in Paris as all the families fucked of the the Mediterranean and left the old folk behind.
Not a new thing.
