Again I agree with you except by my estimate the mortality rate was between 6.3% and 12.5%. My calculations are based on the world’s population of about 1.6 billion people in 1918. If 1/5 of the worlds population got it as quoted in the link on my previous post, that equates to 320 million. Again from this link if 20 to 40 million people died then I think the maths works out to the above answer. As a side note I always thought mortality rate was a comparison of total deaths to the total number infected. Obviously in my above link this is not the case.
