Going by WHO’s estimates, India’s true death toll due to Covid-19 comes to approximately 10 times the 481,000 Covid-19 fatalities recorded till December 31, 2021.

The World Health Organization’s estimates that 4.74 million lives were lost in India due to Covid-19 is flawed, the Union government said on Thursday with a rebuttal pointing out four major grounds on to dispute the finding.

Going by WHO’s estimates, India’s true death toll due to Covid-19 comes to approximately 10 times the 481,000 Covid-19 fatalities recorded till December 31, 2021. Globally, there were close to 15 million deaths in 2020 and 2021, the WHO said, roughly thrice the known death toll.

“India has been consistently objecting to the methodology adopted by WHO to project excess mortality estimates based on mathematical models. Despite India’s objection to the process, methodology and outcome of this modelling exercise, WHO has released the excess mortality estimates without adequately addressing India’s concerns,” the government said in a statement, within minutes of the WHO report’s release.
