With death rates apparently rising since the end of lockdown, it could be perceived that Pierre is criticising Mr K's imperfect phrasing of deaths because that evidence contradicts his opinion.

I hope that the deaths reported today reduce down substantially and Pierre is right.
Er, no, I was just correcting the statement. Otherwise people may have incorrectly thought that 500 had died in one, when the daily death tolls have never reached that figure. It might unnecessarily frighten some poeople!
