How many potential deaths is 20,000 infections that based on current CMR?

At the current Australian CMR of 1.161% that's a worst case scenario of 200 deaths.
Further to the comment above, we knew that China was being less than truthful about either case or mortality numbers and it doesn't surprise me that there are others being (let's be generous) a bit inaccurate for a variety of reasons not all of them deliberate.
