The last pandemic in 1968-1970 killed one million worldwide, and 34,000 in the US Zip, that is bad, but questions on that:

1. How many did not die?
2. How many were under the age of 3 or over the age of 60?
3. How many were in rural, or medically unprepared/underserviced areas?

I guess I should look into it too, but the point I am making is simple, panic is an easy thing to foster over something that may not warrant it.
