re: #444 calcajun

You and anyone who has info. The number of deaths has not been confirmed. WHO is downplaying the numbers, especially out of Mexico. if it is passed via person-to-person, it would seemingly have a high contagion rate. I vaguely recall the outbreak in the 70’s, but do not recall any fatalities from then.

I do know the Spanish Flu of 1917 started here and made its way around the world before it mutated in to the real killer. Has there been any suggestion that the same is possible with this strain?

Calcajun, I was just linking to the article. I have absolutely no understanding of the finer points of this flu situation.

Someone else will have to jump in with a possible answer for you.
