“The death rate in New York State isnt 7.4%, it is actually .75%.”
That is assuming that they accurately tested and reported the deaths. I’m betting it is less than 0.37%.

0.75%, 0.37%, that’s still lots of times higher than the flu.
If you look at the deaths graph on the last page of NYCs own statistics
You will notice that, for the last week, the probable deaths (no positive COVID test) exceed the confirmed deaths (had positive COVID test)
With the expansion of testing ability, NYC has NO EXCUSE for not giving each suspected COVID death a test.
NYC is counting lots of non-COVID deaths as COVID deaths.
