43. The death rate you provided is based on KNOWN cases of H5N1
Edited on Thu Mar-24-05 09:50 AM by NNN0LHI
Isn't it? How many UNKNOWN cases were there where the person had some minor symptoms such as a runny nose, a cough, and sore throat, but recovered on their own without even seeking medical care? Could that number be in the thousands or even the millions? You don't know the answer to that question. Do you?

So your suggestion that "H5N1 is actually about 10X HIGHER than 1918 pandemic flu" may be only a guess on your part. Isn't that the truth?

Now if you are privy to some scientific evidence suggesting otherwise, lets see it. I am open minded. But on the other hand, if this is based only on your opinion, please say so.

Don
