Wow. Nice work. Thanks for keeping track of this information and putting it in table form.

Now since a picture is worth a thousand words, how about graphing it out and putting up the pics. :)

Hey....maybe we should graph all the deaths from the "flu" in an average year.....it's somewhere around 44,000 isn't it?

[CathyRyan]

Wonderful chart. Thank you for all your hard work.

Thanks again for your good work.

Looks like you got the attention of a few freepers from the uninformed wing of conservatism. It appears they do not understand what a potential pandemic would look like in its early stages. Nor do they understand the means by which such a potential pandemic can be headed off. After all, the sun is shining today. Why should they prepare for winter?

Perhaps they will sing a less condescending tune when the hospitals in their own home towns are full, and their own loved ones cannot get the medical attention they need. For this is surely what will happen unless SARS is contained, we develop a vaccine, or we get lucky and it burns itself out.
