Coronavirus India Live News: Media report on excess Covid deaths in India ‘purely speculative’: Govt
The government told Lok Sabha on Friday that the report by an international magazine claiming that India’s COVID-19 deaths were more than the number officially recorded was “purely speculative”. In written reply to a question, Union Minister of State for Health Bharati Pravin Pawar said the international magazine in its report in January 2022 speculated excess deaths than the official number of COVID-19 fatalities. “The report was purely speculative that made use of non-validated methodology for calculating estimates of excess mortality and lacked any peer reviewed scientific data,” she said. The report by Project: Jeevan Raksha released in October 2021 suffered from a similar lack of scientific rigour, the minister said. – PTI
