It's based on WHO numbers. When you do the actual math, the death rate is actually closer to 4%, worldwide, which means the survival rate is, like, 96%
However, when you factor in all the "mistakes", and the blatant massaging and falsification of data that's been exposed and admitted, it's not hard to eke out that other 2%. Or more.

Alright, so your argument is that no less than half the numbers are erroneous, in the direction of net overstatement. Can't say you are wrong, but that seems like a stretch, though I'm sure there's a goodly number of people that survive it and never record a test. Time will tell!
