I'm quite confused at people who persist in arguing that #COVID19 has an infection fatality rate similar to that of influenza (~0.1-0.2%)
Currently, 14,800 people in New York have died
That's 0.18% OF THE ENTIRE CITY
Unless 100% are infected, it's not as low as 0.1-0.2%

Remember that Lombardy, and I believe NYC, had their hospitals overloaded. I think the IFR is valid under a fully functioning care? On the other hand, both those regions probably have a lot of under reporting too.
