Critics argue that changing the counting method during a period of high mortality serves to obscure the true impact of the pandemic and its aftermath. The new approach accounts for population growth and aging, which officials claim provides a more accurate common UK-wide standard.

Analysts question the accuracy of this figure, arguing it conflates those who died "with" the virus versus "from" the virus. The actual case fatality rate is suggested to be significantly lower than the reported 0.2% of the total population.

A viral video from a UK funeral director claimed that death rates were normal in 2020 but spiked dramatically following the start of the vaccination campaign in January 2021.

India's rate of 146 deaths per million is significantly lower than that of New Jersey, Hungary, or the United Kingdom. While cases have spiked, producers argue that the death rate remains relatively flat compared to the total population of 1.34 billion.

Cuomo acknowledged that at such low levels, the numbers often depend on how hospitals attribute the cause of death for gravely ill patients. This admission has led to claims that prior death counts may have been inflated through specific medical coding practices.

Governor Andrew Cuomo expressed shock at data showing 66% of new COVID-19 cases in New York occurred among people who were staying at home. Media commentators have struggled to reconcile this data with the narrative that social distancing is the primary driver of safety.

He notes that Sweden's population maintained a relatively normal life with moderate social distancing, while Norway faced economic destruction and job losses. The hosts conclude that the lockdowns are politically motivated rather than science-based.

While coronavirus deaths were reported at approximately 8,700, influenza deaths reached 20,000 in the same population. The hosts question the logic of national lockdowns for a virus that, according to these figures, is less lethal than the common flu.
