Hyperbole is something to be avoided at the moment...The global death toll is still below 100,000 (a shocking total in itself) but you go on to suggest that the UK on its own could be left with "hundreds of thousands" dead from the disease which is beyond the realms of possibility.
There are “expert” opinions out there that say the death rate from Covid-19 might be 1% of those who catch it. If the whole population catches it that is 60 million at 1% = 600,000 which is hundreds of thousands.
Those opinions might be wrong of course.
