it's really not that complex.

another thing that confuses me; we are getting reports that the number of actual cases is likely 8 to 10 times higher than is being reported
so, more like 25 million cases instead of 2.5 million
this is being used to drum up more fear; when it actually demonstrates that the virus is in truth less deadly than we are being told
20 - 25 million prior cases is reason to be less afraid, not more afraid...

Exactly. As blood tests proceed, we are finding that many more people have been exposed showing mild or no symptoms. To me, the term "cases" is misleading. When I think of a medical case, I think of someone who requires medical treatment for an illness which is not the case (excuse the pun) with asymptomatic exposure. The denominator for death rate really should be deaths/exposures.
Here's the data that the liberal media will never share. It actually took some digging to find a graph of weekly deaths over time. It wasn't broken down like this at the CDC website nor was an option for the Johns Hopkin website data.
I found this at the Our World in Data website sponsored by Oxford University. The data speaks for itself showing a steady overall decline in Covid-19 deaths in the U.S. and yes, there was a recent uptick in June:

As I've mentioned before, I am absolutely certain my wife had COVID for 10 weeks between Thanksgiving and end of January (she has asthma so it hit her hard), and then I and my daughters had it for a few weeks in December, but much less severe, as none of us has asthma.
And my wife is a nurse who works with a couple dozen other medical professionals at Kennestone Hospital who all had the same violent cough for weeks and even months around that same time.
Not to mention, that NYS health chart I posted shows how supposed flu cases were double and triple their norms at the beginning to middle of last flu season, before COVID was supposedly even a thing. And those numbers would have made this the worst flu season since the 1918 Spanish Flu Epidemic.
And to suddenly go from being the worst flu season in 100 years to a 95% reduction in typical amount of flu cases virtually overnight, the instant COVID testing rolls out, just shows there's something insanely wonky and assuredly corrupt going on.
All the data and anecdotal evidence tells me this thing was making it's way through our country unabated for probably at least 6 months before we had our first mandate to social distance and begin widespread testing and accounting for positive cases and deaths.
Which means tens of millions more people have had this thing than we think or are being told. Probably over 100 million, and probably even more, have been exposed. Probably upwards of 50 million+ have been infected. And as a result, the symptomatic rate is magnitudes lower than we know or they are telling us. Which in turn means the mortality rate is also magnitudes lower.
Yes, this thing kicks the shite out of people's respiratory function for those who actually are symptomatic. But with only 26 school-age children dying from it out of 123,000, and over 90% of deaths being people with pre-existing conditions and/or 77+ years old, this thing is quite nuanced and selective, making it even that much less of what these doomers portray it as.

We really don't know the number of current and past infections. If only 25 million have been infected that is less than 8% of us. We have a long way to go.
How many of the estimated 25 million infections are current infections? We don't know but there've been a lot of new infections in almost half of our states.
I've been trying to find a chart showing our history of new daily COVID hospitalizations but so far I haven't found that info.
