WTF is "age-adjusted EXTRA death" when its at home? Is that like what we would call "excess deaths"? I haven't seen Sweden's excess death figure but I'd be shocked if its as low as 3,000.
As for your final paragraph, you're wrong. The PM, Sunak and others were speaking to all sorts of scientists, including yes some scientists with contrarian views (who are still respected scientists in their own right) and ended up going with what the SAGE scientists decided in much less than 12 weeks. Now its not been 12 weeks since the vaccine program began but there's already data and science there to be followed but you want to piss around for 12 weeks. You're more dithering than Sunak.
I see the WHO this weekend came out and said that it was "wonderful" that the "bravery" of the UK has led to improvements in science leading to "greater protection" from the vaccine doses. Says the UK approach has been "vindicated" and "thank you British scientists".

When the slow-moving WHO has already moved on, when are you going to get with the program? Will it take 12 weeks for you to do so? If so, you're far slower than Sunak. The science was always there, it was online for you to read, the logic and evidence was put out and a decision was made - and tens of thousands of British lives, hundreds of thousands of lives globally if our evidence is followed potentially, could be saved as a result. But you were furious at the decision making, arguing against it with the same misrepresentation and logic of demanding 100% proof as the Toadmeister or other lockdownsceptics arguing against lockdowns.
