WHO Estimate Of India Deaths "Untenable": Covid Panel Chief

The World Health Organization (WHO) report of 4.7 million "excess" Covid deaths in India does not stand any "logic or fact", the chief of the country's Covid Working Group said today, calling the report "worrisome". Speaking to NDTV this morning, Dr NK Arora, chief of India's Covid Working Group, said that while there can be a 10-20% discrepancy, India's robust and accurate death registration system (known as Civil Registration System, or CRS) ensures that a majority of virus-related deaths are covered.
