Don't tell me, you also think climate change is a hoax too...
I'm not one of those that say "it's just a flu". However, the mortality rate is most likely nowhere near as high as you suggest. Your numbers are only based on known infections. It is fair to assume that there are lot's more unknown infections which will bring down the mortality rate a lot. My guess based on everything I have read is to not more than 1%
Again, that is still ten times worse than the regular flu. But not as bad as you suggested.
