Hi Peter, I think it would be good if you showed your calculation in the article.

Because if people do the calculation wrongly like I did, they’ll do this: 3953 / 6407 x 100 = 62%. People might just assume you got confused, and the over reporting should be 38%.

I just think it might help prevent an unnecessary distraction.

Finnish media Yle got confused lol

It is true that 38% OF the reported covid deaths didn't die of covid, but it is also true that there WAS a 62% overreporting.

Percentages can be hard sometimes, hence why I didn't immediately catch on to the fact that they reported it incorrectly.
