WHO estimates 15 million people have died as result of Covid pandemic

Shaft!
Compared to the official toll of something like 5.4 million. The video just goes to show that reading out percentages is a terrible way of communicating data. Some of these deaths were in countries on different continents and in countries in which the people had some sort of income!

You'd think that https://www.who.int/emergencies/disease ... virus-2019 or https://www.who.int/news-room/news-updates would have a big obvious link to the story behind whatever it was they were going on tv to talk about but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well ok but the WHO is hardly going to say you know what it was fine in the end everyone dies eventually. And they're also not going to mention what they f.cked up or were useless about at the beginning.
having that swing is a necessary but not sufficient condition for it meaning a thing
