We can just be grateful that we weren't under a National government during that time because for one thing there would now be around 50,000 less Kiwis if we had been.
Things like health and welfare are black holes - you could triple the amount of money they each have and their would still be poverty, waiting lists and 2 week waits for a doctors appointment.
That death count is total conjecture and you know it.
