The Economist - The Pandemic's True Death Toll 

The Economist became the first and only organisation in the world to publish a daily updating estimate of the pandemic’s true death toll, as well as estimates of excess deaths for every country in the world. These are, as far as we are aware, the only estimates of excess deaths – the best metric of pandemic mortality, partly because it does not depend on testing – available at the global level updating regularly.
