[quote=partypup]Open question to everyone, here. I don’t think this virus will end up being particularly deadly. I would be surprised if it ended up exceeding a 5% mortality rate in the U.S…..

partypup, 5% of the US population is over 15 million people. I consider that a lot of dead people.
Of course, the whole thing is over-hyped. It fills air-time, and gives people a scary thrill, like a good ride at Disney. It’s as likely to become a repeat of the 1918 flu as the two-headed baby fathered by aliens will get up from the cover of The National Enquirer and walk around with a ray-gun.
