The flyer you posted showed 49 Million infected, that is 5 million more then what is on the current CDC website (link below). The hospitalization is 10000 more and the deaths are way off of the CDC by 17901.

Maybe the flyer was printed before they finish determining the official numbers. I am very interested where you got the flyer image from? Do you have a link?

The CDC site shows:   2017 to 2018    44 million cases, 808129 hospitalizations, 61099 deaths

The total flu deaths is without Social Distances and Lock downs (stay at home). What would flu death rate have been if everybody practice Social Distances and Lock Downs.

Another point the flyer shows what the death rates of 8000 if everybody got vaccinated. I find that very interesting.
Cornonvirus does not have a vaccinate or approve treatment yet, so Coronvirus should be higher than the Flu.

CDC stats for 2017-2018 Flu Season

From USA Today: "The flu, a chronic killer that the nation has come to expect in yearly cycles – and the reason millions of Americans get flu shots – killed an estimated 508 people per day in the U.S. during the 2017-18 flu season, the nation's worst in the last decade, according to the CDC. This year's flu season has recorded an average of 383 deaths per day, CDC figures show."

The Coronavirus is just getting started. There was 1049 deaths yesterday with Social Distances and Lock downs.

Something like half the world’s population is in lockdown right now (and that does not include China and Iran where accurate information is not available).

Some folks out there think this is a really big deal. :-)

Right click on the image I posted it says CDC dot gov.

It would seem the CDC put that image out using their estimations of that year. (found the estimations in the link you gave)
