> the real fatality rate could in fact be closer to 0.06%
If you take a look at Diamond Princess.
~ 4000 on board
* 712 cases
* 10 deaths
Gives a case fatality rate of 1.4%.
The average age onboard was ~60 years (don't know if it includes staff) which is definitely higher than average.
However, the two numbers (1.4% and 0.06%) sounds very far apart.
