>> 3% is still 3x more than the average flu death rate of 1%

0.3% -- not 3%. Which means that Covid-19 death rate is ONE-THIRD the flu death rate.

No - it’s .1% it’s still 3x (actually .26% on other news sites so 2.6x more)

“Regular Flu” Case Fatality Rates over the last 10 flu seasons range from 0.096%-0.176%, so COVID-19 is running about 2 times as deadly as the regular flu.

The .30% COVID-19 CFR is subject to change (lower) as more antibody testing is done and changes the “denominator”.
