WFoL,
There is a reason for the assumptions, however.
Yeah, I get it, but one thing you can't fake is the number of deaths due to the coronavirus.

If the death rate is so low, and if the death rate is comparable to seasonal flu, then how come Italy's health care system, for example, was crushed by the flood of "seasonal flu" cases this year?

All indications are that COVID-19 is more contagious and more deadly than seasonal flu. Whether the infection numbers are too low (and the corresponding death rates too high) is a matter of debate, but to downplay the seriousness of COVID-19 is not something I would support.
