you can do the math its pretty simple.
on the same trajectory it would put covid as 2x less deadly than the flu. but thats not all:
-
last year flu has a ~50% successful vaccine (that means people who are given it, and hospitals will give it to you if you are sick enough to go there - will get immunity or reduced effects 50% of the time). note: i did not lookup the exact percentage, as usually they give a percentage range which muddies the water (like 30-42%)
-
if using the same measures as they do for covid, cdc numbers double. this makes covid 4x less deadly when extrapolating for 6month
i would greatly encourage looking at the data critically and adding the numbers its really easy
