> The death toll (CFR) in India is suspiciously lower than in the European states There are too many other, far more plausible, reasons why the death toll in India looks lower: * Population pyramid - far fewer people aged 70+ as a percentage of the population means a far lower CFR * Hotter weather which slows the spread of coronaviruses massively * More sunlight means less vitamin-D deficiency (which seems to worsen infections) * Low amount of travel to/from initial seeding spots means closing borders was effective (Wuhan, northern Italy, Alps) And that is without casting any aspersions about causes of death being attributed correctly. |
