To be honest that is more than any bird flu outbreak killed so I understand it getting some press.
I worry slightly about a flu pandemic but this one seems to have started off as a relatively weak strain compared to the killer of 1918. In my mind that means the worst is probably over as even if it mutates it is already on the radar and will be managed better than if it came out of the blue.
