The IFR, depending on whom you believe, was always in the 0.23-0.7% range. The CFR is a worthless junk statistic for estimating risk to the individual and is only of use for managing services.
Whether it is lower now or not is more a philosophical question as empirical, the IFR has been demolished by vaccinating the elderly.
This can be taken two ways.... Either that Covid was never a risk to most people to begin with and only appeared deadly because of those close to death, OR Vaccines have saved us.
Either way, the CFR in Briton of the Delta Variant is 0.13%, for the unvaccinated that number is 0.08%
A reasonable IFR rate would be close to half those rates (in my opinion, as that is unknowable)
