I still don't understand why this is considered a pandemic

I still don't understand why this is a pandemic. 150,000 people die every day in the world (crude mortality rate). In the past 4 months only 35,000 people have died worldwide, as of today. Basically, only 0.0016% die daily from Covid-19 out of total daily deaths.

    The percentage is many times lower if one takes into consideration that around 18,000,000 people have died worldwide in the past 4 months in contrast to 35,000.
