Yes. Its code is archaic.
u spelled flu wrong
Thanks for WHO links, that is what I searched...
And that is exactly what is wrong here: majority of people (including me), do not go to hospital to get register to have a flu (nor take a vaccine) in order to avoid any other infection in waiting room, or some hospital becteria resisted to almost all antibiotic and multiple other reasons - only if make some serious and comlications. I know when I have it and stay home! In 4-5 year, once is quite strong (headache, fever, sneezing, 38-39C, ...) but after 7-14 days, all gets to normal. But usually it is quite mild reaction (temp under 38C and similar) and after 3-5 days there is no more symptoms...
How many is vaccianated regarding seasonal flu? Well, I haven't found any data, only suggestion for risk groups. Is it vaccine really effective? Or they giving us extra "stuff" which makes our immune system to collapse more often and we become more "addicted" to it? How many percentage of the whole population take it is unknown as it is commercial product. All about vaccination in general is as well quite controversal and I will not talk about "conspiracy theories" - who have abbility to rationally think and get conscluson based on facts, know what I'm talking about and what is the difference between a "sheep", reasonable and inteligent person...
But that is another story I do not really want to write about here either...
Since this mass media histeria, we are practially all confused and unable to get rational conclusion. People can do very stupid things under histeria and that is what is mainly wrong here and "freaks me up", not the virus infection itself nor eventually death for any reason...

I can't imagine there exists a reliable estimate for mortality rate of the current virus. I imagine most estimates would be skewed towards higher numbers as a result of non-response bias.
I honestly feel that naming the darn thing was the worst thing possible. I'm not entirely sure that the disease would cause much more harm to the total population than a particularly potent strain of the flu, but then again, I'm not a doctor.

Sir, this is a Wendy's.
You must read the infection stats in the knowledge that they are at least 2 to 3 weeks behind real-time.The pertinent thing is the graph indicating trend.
A person who tests negative today may be positive next week .The self-isolation and social distancing etc. measures go a long way towards interrupting the transmission vectors.
Remember how you would react if someone with a cold sneezed on you? Same thing this time,but way deadlier.

Additional risks no one actually think about:
- Even if nearby contagious person breading without a mask have the same effect (I think 1.5 - 2m).
- Use of public transport (sitting or hanging on a rod)
- Touching a market door without gloves, touching escalator...
- Just imagine what is stick on your shoes...
- Even these volontiers bringing food can transmit the virus touching boxes, money etc.
Possibilities are endless... And all that may make a person to go insane.

Using my state's covid data:
Out of 17.5 K people tested, roughly 10 percent were positive. However, fewer than 250 people have been reported hospitalized by the virus.
If we assume that every person in the state who had the virus was tested (setting any non-response bias to zero, as well as false positives), the hospitalization rate of the disease is less than 15 percent (which is high, but not as high as I expected given the amount of fuss people have made about the virus), and the mortality rate comes out to roughly 2 percent. The estimated mortality rate will probably decline over time, as new infections will outpace new deaths.

Your last point is wrong. Dr. Fauci himself has said not to worry about deliveries and packages. The others, wear gloves and masks, stay inside, social distance, wash your hands. Not complicated.
