Not saying you're wrong but
1. 4/700 is only the initial figure. Likely more people will die from cruise ship, COVID-19 takes about 2 weeks to develop severe pneumonia.
2. Since these patients are now not categorized as Diamond Princess, instead they're categorized under their countries' stats, likely we will never hear from them again in such an isolated fashion.

There may very well be more deaths or there may not be. But my point is that the Diamond princess isn't currently good supporting evidence for a 1% mortality rate in the general population. 2. I'm sure all of their names are out there, and someone will eventually put together a study once it's been long enough to know their outcomes.
