But I don't accept the assertion that everyone is at risk. Even during the Spanish Flu, the majority of people did not catch it. And we're smarter now about taking care of our health.

I agree with you. The countries really at risk are the third world countries. Like Mexico, Central & South American countries, Islamic countries and the like. Inshah Allah.

That took about three-four generations though. I wouldn't want to be the ones that had to live through the interregnum (assuming one lived through it) to see the benefits on the other side..
