Well, I’d bet coffee that the potentially pandemic, super nasty, end of the world flu is the same flu that was going around at the end of spring break that was on the news as a late season flu resurgence.
Now, time for a little math. In the USA, we typically have 36,000 deaths a year from the flu. We have a population of 303,000,000.
Mexico city, let’s call that ground zero, is 24,000,000 in population with much of the population living in poverty.
An equivalent annual death rate would be 2850. Roughly 100/week for the six months of high activity. Mexico, has had 159 in about two weeks.
I would expect Mexico city to have a much worse death rate for general flu than the US due to poverty.
