Don’t know if this has been posted but here is a (supposedly) real time virus statistic world wide. Right now it is at. 1.2 million cases and 65,000 (ish) deaths. That is... 5% death rate(?). If anyone knows, what is the death rate for any other influenza?

There have been so many unconfirmed, undetected cases (display no symptoms) those rates mean very little at this point. When this wave has passed, things have settled down, and they can do some broader testing to the population as a whole, they'll have a much more meaningful number.
