tl;dr: Every single sentence in your comment is untrue.
An IFR of 0.17% is not even wrong.
That would result in at least 10 states in the US itself to have had more cases than their population [0]. Assuming 100% infection rates, the minimum IFR looks to be at least 0.3%.
Also, no flu season ever has crossed even 70,000 deaths [1]. So I have no idea where your numbers are coming from. In fact, the excess mortality in the US till October 2020 was close to half a million. And that was the before the worst of the December peak when 4,000 people were dying daily.
