The JHU site provided metrics and details of fatality rates for ages based on comorbidities and weight, among other variables

I referenced the JHU site

The JHU data was based on the best available data at the time, and was regularly updated.

I've heard various things about whether or not the JHU data was negative enough or positive enough, but as far as a top line for mortality, it seemed accurate given the data at the time.
In retrospect, the fatality numbers may have been too high, but, that may also have been as a result of improving therapeutics, and recognition that some of the early responses such as putting patients on higher pressure ventilators was contraindicated.
This is further complicated by variant types which have different amounts of lethality.
