The hospitals in our region have no Corona patients. I, and no-one of my family, friends, or co-workers or whatever know of a single person who has or had it. And new articles report that up to 96% of all cases are unreported...and thus the death rate is those of a flu.

You're comparing the numbers for covid-19 under social distancing guidelines to regular flu statistics (in which we make no attempt to slow the spread) and suggesting the regular flu is more deadly. It's a false comparison.

^ That's a very important point.
