(19.1/1000) * 1 500 000 000 / 365.242 5
= 78 441.035 750 220 743 752 4
78 441 per day, nearly 80 000 per day

(8.1/1000) * 7000000000 / 365.242 5
= 155 239.327 296 248 382 923 7
155 239 per day or 155 000 + per day

19.1/1000 was crude death rate each year in 1950-55, here projected back to 1850 when world population was c. 1.5 billion. 8.1/1000 was CDR 2010-2015, arguably so far of 2015-2020, and here compared to a world population of 7 billion.

It seems, Antony Maria Claret was fairly spot on about 80 000 dying each day, in his day, now there are more./HGL

So, no, St. Antony Maria Claret was arguably not bluffing about how many died each day./HGL
