So the worst week in the worst year on that chart (past 8 years) is 1600 deaths or about 230 per day.

We’ve been cranking that all week. 515 yesterday. With a tiny segment of the population infected (I stand by my <1% estimate).

20% of the population gets the flu on average (CDC estimate, FWIW) each season (really, only about 7-8 months of the year).

Without ongoing containment, it would be all over already.

I was wondering what the HIGHEST death day of an average flu was and, even, what the highest death day was for H1N1.

What is this I am reading Iceland has identified 40 different strains?
