Please post me any article of a healthy person
who died from the flu during the years 1969- 2008 :)
Earlier studies conducted in tissue culture and in ferrets — the best animal model for human flu — found the new virus is drawn to tissue found deep in the lung. That’s a penchant it shares with H5N1. Seasonal flu viruses attack the upper airways.

The mortality rate for H1N1 is less than 1%.
The mortality rate for H5N1 is 60%.
Are these then two very compatible diseases, with comparable outcomes?
Is that revealed in the article in Zaki’s comments? No.
He talks about the similarities of those who die, then skips the mention that less than 1% of the H1N1 infected people die.
Strangely enough, it is mentioned in the article that 60% of those who contract H1N5 die. Why provide the worst outcome percentage that you have just tied H1N1 to, without providing the same figure for H1N1, namely less than 1%?
