See..a lot of people (especially children apparently) are asymptomatic, and a lot are also just presenting as very mild. Such people are NOT really being tested as why do they need to be? More people have this than those confirmed for sure.

Flu also does not necessarily kick your arse (mind one time I had it, I literally wanted to die and couldnt move for a week). It does in a lot of people, but others can present mildly, or they can just be carriers also.

Test a bunch of randomly picked people throughout the country, and it will be found there are many many more than the apparent 50k cases. Mortality rate I really doubt is as high as it appears, for that reason. Only those needing medical help are being tested, of them, mortality rate seems to be 2% or whatever. But it is ignoring those who have caught it but are not bad enough to need help.
