That's correct. But for the same reasons, the seasonal flu is likely more survival than reported. That still means COVID-19 is likely still more deadly than the flu. But since the methods for getting these statistics aren't consistent, they can't be compared. Maybe the reason experts aren't paying attention to the stats you keep posting is because they aren't important.

And again, you are missing the real point. The survival rate of COVID-19 is dependent on a high level of medical attention. There is not enough capacity in the medical system to treat everyone to the degree required for COVID-19. Once the medical system gets overloaded, massive amounts of deaths can occur.

I will ask you this again, do you really think the medical experts, government officials, and major businesses haven't seen the same data you have?
