The claim described in this 2021 article is based in a CFR calculation for Covid in 2020 in China. Early CFR data are inaccurate (inflated) due to minimal reporting of mild and asymptomatic infections. https://asia.nikkei.com/Spotlight/Caixin/China-rates-COVID-close-to-HIV-as-a-deadly-infectious-disease https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(20)30244-9/fulltext "The COVID‐19 CFR is now similar to that of seasonal influenza...." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9874414/
