No where even close to 99%

Worldwide case number is 166M. Wordlwide death toll is 3.4M. About 2%. Worldwide. Overall. So a 98% loss rate; my bad.
Some of those 3.44M are also not deaths STRICTLY because of Covid, but also include people who were already sick, which Covid infection exacerbated symptoms and pushed them over the edge. That isn't to say that Covid played no part; because it clearly did. That's also a relatively small number in the grand scheme of things.
