Original Note:
Sultana quotes a death toll of 186k suggesting that it was the Lancet's figure. It is important to note that this was not in a peer reviewed study or an official article, but in a reader's correspondence. Martin McKee confirmed shortly after that the number was illustrative. https://x.com/EllaTravelsLove/status/1810383372276908372
