I think the literal words there might be making that statement sound more direct then it's meant to be? Like, imagine if someone said Fourze was created based on the concept of earthquakes. Not exactly inaccurate; but obviously not the whole picture.
It's pretty natural all that would be on the minds of the people making Saber, and they have been mentioning stuff along those lines since the show began. For instance, the page for the first episode on Kamen Rider Web where the producer outright says that "I decide how the story ends!" is as much a summation of their determination to make the show as it is Touma's determination to save people. There's definitely plenty of things about the production that were naturally influenced by all this, too, like the heavy use of green-screen backgrounds, and I vaguely recall seeing news articles around the announcement saying stuff along the lines of the initial concept of Kamen Riders saving people who have been literally boxed off from their everyday lives is ~maybe~ taking a page from recent events. So, Kamen Rider Saber isn't about the pandemic, but it also isn't not about it. Yeah, this really makes some sense, especially when you consider that it is running alongside the optimistic Zenkaiger.

Okay so as confirmed with the preview and the website.
We'll be returning to Saber's plot on August 1st, so we won't be waiting long. |

Damn, the new generals are looking great. Surprisingly better than Storious. And Ren with Kyomu next next week, I'm excited.
Oh yeah, Adult Luna's showing up in 44. So, uh, there you go. |

I'm sorry if this ruins it for someone, but is that the Horseshoe Crab Raiders's suit? Those shoulders look really familiar. The new villain does look awesome, but that's kind of a weird choice of suit to use as the base.
Hmm, first the kitbashed Future Riders in Zi-O, then the Transteam Gun base suits being recycled into Ikazuchi, Naki and 001 in Zero-One, now the Kasshine and Battle Raider suits becoming Solomon, Storius and this new villain in Saber... it seems like recycling suits is becoming a regular thing in Kamen Rider, and I expect some people to hate that but it honestly doesn't bother me because all the results look pretty good. Obviously I wouldn't want the designers to rely on it too much, but I'm actually a bit curious to see what suits from Saber will get recycled in Revice! Maybe poor underused Dragonic Knight will get a second chance to shine as a new character.

So we've turned our jobbers from Zero-One into the quirky miniboss squad for Saber's endgame.
Good. Them all having different shoulders and weapons though does give me hope that each one will be a singular boss fight against a set of Riders. |
