- logicuce 5y agoExactly the point I am making. You can do the analysis and determine the scale but you can't change the official COVID numbers. In fact, that is even the link you shared shows. It compared the overall death rate with the official COVID numbers and proved the numbers are conservative, in US. Of course.
