What a rubbish site. Its first argument is that deaths are not worse than 2018, so its not bad. Even though you can see that number of deaths quickly surpasses 2018 in 2-3 weeks and rises a lot higher faster, while it started a lot lower.

It's third argument is even more ridiculous. "Look at this graph showing a strong correlation between lockdown stringency and infection cases, stringent lockdowns increase infections!" is akin to saying people should stop using umbrellas because they increase rain.

(Also that graph is useless because the number of cases is not normalized inhabitants per inhabitants, so its x axis is bad)
