"If that were true nationwide then the approximate death rate to date from Covid19 would be more in line with estimates for the flu, correct?"
What people call "the flu" are people who have symptoms. COVID-19 is the nomenclature for people who have Sars-Cov-2 who have symptoms significant enough to be documented. Sort of how HIV and AIDS are two different things. I'm not aware of any studies about people who carry/spread influenza that are asymptomatic.
