Death rate seems to be a bit lower than originally estimated.....
The KEY language there isn't 1.4%

It's 1.4% "after developing symptoms" - a phraseology that they use several times in that article.

If the CFR of symptomatic patients is 1.4% and the belief is that there could be 1/2 or more of people who come down with this and don't show outward symptoms...that could drive the overall CFR down significantly.
