Since you all like to quote from "the CDC', "Johns Hopkins" among others with very rudimentary (look that word up Archie) analysis, I will provide you two a link to a very good article, also from the CDC.  Pour over it and get back with us.  It may assist in describing why the IFR is the far more important calculation, the position which I have maintained for a considerable period of time.  As it turns out Archie and Fish, the IFR is really not so mysterious at all, is it?  It actually determines how well we are doing controlling a disease.  You all don't want to learn how WELL we in healthcare are doing because it does not fit your politics.  Plain and simple.
