Not sure why you're so heavily downvoted but if you took the total deaths across NYC and divided by the entire population of NYC, you get a strict lower bound IFR of 0.14% which makes this at least 3x deadlier than the flu. If you figure more like 1/5 of NYC has been infected, your IFR is more like 18x as deadly as the flu.
