Posting this update half way through the 3-week period. We are now at 16,510 deaths total(1) on April 9th.
I'm not suggesting COVID-19 isn't bad, it just isn't 20x flu bad with the mitigation we have in place.
We won't really understand the statistics on this until a year or more out when analysis of all the death certificates come in and we can look at how 2020 is different, i.e. for each COVID-19 how many fewer flu deaths did we have? etc.
