Thanks for the comment Jeff. I referred to “unconfirmed cases”, not people who haven’t died yet. In order to know the exact fatality rate you would need to know exactly how many people actually contracted the virus. That number is unknown because lots of people have had the virus who never got tested, didn’t end up in a hospital, didn’t have severe symptoms or die from Covid. The data is necessarily incomplete due to the fact that not all cases of people who have contracted the virus have been documented. Lots of people have gotten it and never knew they had it. And the more cases of people who have contracted Covid but didn’t die from it would cause the fatality rate to go down, even if the number of deaths stayed the same. Regardless, whether it’s 1% or 2% or 3%, my point was that it’s clearly much lower than the fatality rate during the plague, for a variety of reasons, including of course modern medicine and vaccines.
