I will preface this by saying that I am no MD. I do however have a BA and MS in Environmentalal Biology and a second MS in Soil Chemistry, and that I likely have more statistical background than most MD's, excepting maybe the epidemiologists.

The chart shows that the mortality rate of confirmed test cases is 2% in the US and 4% outside with an overall 3.4%. They also highlight the comparison made by the WHO to a .1% mortality rate for the common flu. That is a flawed comparison in that the .1% mortality is based on a total estimated infected on not a test confirmed. In point of fact if you compare those that are test confirmed (ie present to the hospitals with sufficient symptoms to even warrant a test with flu or hospitalization) that the actual mortality rate is 10% for the common flu. Thus COVID 19 has shown a 5 times lower mortality rate on test confirmed cases in the US than the common flu. Furthermore, other data has shown that about 80+% of those tested in the US, have shown as negative for CV in other published works. That is about on par with the percent negative tested in the normal flu. In other words, if these numbers are accurate and hold and 36 Million Americans were estimated to be infected by CV, there would be less than 4000 deaths due to CV. Even if the estimates of 160 million Americans being infected are realized, the number of total deaths would be near, slightly below or slightly higher than the 22,000 deaths that have already occurred with the common flu. Again if these numbers are accurate, that is what they would be predicted to show.
