> The idea is that if your country/region doesn't have excess total deaths, then whatever pandemic restrictions and policy you've implemented is good enough I disagree with this inference. Different countries have different demography, different weather, different cultural habits, different infrastructures, etc. On top of that, we still don't know how many people would only have benign symptoms when they are infected. I would refrain anyone to compare pandemic restrictions with a correlation in total death of a country. There are simply too many unknowns, both politically and scientifically
