That paragraph is questioning the conclusion: how deadly the virus is, not the data: how many people died and how.

Seeking an alternate explanation for the data, which is what scientists do, is not the same as denying the data, which is what zealots do.

It also questions the data, for example, the fact that even elderly dying at home without having been tested at all for COVID-19 (!!!) being counted as COVID-19 deaths. This is something I come across in more countries including the USA where various doctors have protested against policies that almost force them to include COVID-19 on death certificates. It's as if they want to artificially inflate the numbers to make COVID-19 seem a lot worse than it is.
