It's been 1.5 years. Have they settled on a number yet?

Here's some data I posted a few days ago:
Code:
Total New Total New Total New Total Death
Country Cases Cases Deaths Deaths Recovered Recovered Tests Rate
------- ------ ----- ------ ------ --------- --------- ------ -----
USA 36.5M 66.9K 632.9K 319 29.9M 17.3K 543.7M 1.73%
India 31.9M 39.1K 427.9K 491 31.1M 43.9K 478.3M 1.34%
Using the above data, Covid fatality rates for the US and India can be calculated as follows:
Code:
Pct
Country Fatal
------- -----
USA 1.73%
India 1.34%
Keep in mind that Covid fatality rates rise exponentially with risk factors and age.
