From NBC Montana:

According to John Hopkins University, there is an estimated 1 billion cases of the flu worldwide every year. Of those, it’s responsible for taking the lives of 291,000 to 646,000 people. That’s .03% to .06%.

The CDC puts the mortality rate of the flu even lower — at 2 deaths per 100,000 people.



CDC equates covid19 & flu, 5/1/20: covid19 hospitalization rates are "similar to" those in >65 yo's during “recent high severity influenza seasons” & for children (0-17) "much lower than flu hosp rates during recent influenza seasons”
