Original Note:
Denominators used in mortality rate (MR) & case fatality rate (CFR) are different. MR = # deaths in entire population per year. CFR = same # deaths, but in confirmed cases. For MR to be 50%, the world had to lose 4B ppl last year. Can confirm, the world still has 8B ppl https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/pharmacology-toxicology-and-pharmaceutical-science/case-fatality-rate https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/
