    Those aren’t deaths, it includes injured. The death count is surprisingly low, like 70,000 or something like that

      That is only the number that has been independently verified from online obituaries and funeral announcements. It should be mentioned that it is much lower than even the most conservative estimates. The actual number of deaths is most likely closer to 200.000, though exact estimates are basically impossible.
