Here, in the good ol USA:
2020 deaths 385,260
2021 deaths 289,986
Population estimates, July 1, 2019, (V2019) 328,239,523
Death rate 2020 - (385,260/328,239,523)*100 = 0.1174%, survival rate = 99.8826%
Death rate 2021 - (289,986/328,239,523)*100 = 0.0884%, survival rate = 99.9116% **
** 2021 is not yet over so these numbers will change.
You can make from the numbers what you want.

At what cost though? AFAIK India has been ravaged by COVID. Getting everyone vaccinated is a safe, incredibly easy, cost-free way to achieve immunity and get life back to normal.

India's Pandemic Death Toll Estimated At About 4 Million: 10 Times The Official Count
That's the number of "excess deaths" from January 2020 to June 2021, reflecting the true toll of COVID-19, say researchers in a new study. Why the big disparity?

Anthony Logan - Interesting, I had guessed that just as there is in the US there would be some undercounting or estimation of COVID deaths I didn't think it would be by 90 percent.
