I really do not have time for this but...

No I can not tell you those figures. Here are some I can tell you with the caveat that imo any 'numbers' relating to 'cause of death' have always been 'fuzzy' and debatable. Figures for 'total deaths' are not 'fuzzy'. There is pretty much universal agreement, from expert through to layman and every other possible 'spectrum' of classifying people you could imagine, as to if someone is dead or not.

In the England Wales

For week 11 - that is the week up until the 11th March

deaths where coronavirus was mentioned on the death certificate - 5
Deaths from anything else 11,014 (vs 5 year average for that week of 11,205)

For week 15 - that is the week up until the 10th April

deaths where coronavirus was mentioned on the death certificate - 6,213
Deaths from anything else - 12,303 (vs 5 year average for that week of 10,520)

So 5 in total have died from coronavirus?
Approximately 1 a week die in road accidents so how many have died from road accidents this year?

5 were dying of virus in a week in the England and Wales not so long ago. 4 weeks later 6,213 died in a week. How any conclusions can be draw from '5 have died in TRNC' in a given time period given the experience in England and Wales I personal do not know ?

A handful here but lots in the UK indicates what, TRNC lockdown measures have been flawless? I personally have seen a fair few flaws

We know numbers can go from tiny to large very quickly. Anywhere. Almost everything else critical is unkown / uncertain still.

Sure but 5 in total isn’t a lot of doubling so we’ve either been very good, very lucky or maybe the low numbers indicate a more accurate count. I doubt if it would take much to overwhelm our hospitals here if we had a massive increase in patients no matter with what they were diagnosed.
