Explain how your 1.9% calculation for CV-19 makes seasonal flu more lethal.

If you do not understand statistics, and what they say, you shouldn't try to talk intelligently about them. The numbers offered are an apples-to-apples comparison, which the numbers being tossed around (including by you) are not.

It is an apples to pears comparison purporting to be a count of tires. Yes, the two comparisons are similar (and not the same), but of a statistic which is not what it purports.
