That's ~670 9/11 attacks' worth of dead.
~350x the number of deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan.
~10x the Civil War.
~3x the yearly heart disease deaths.
~1 death every 0.75 seconds
And this'll occur before June, and something like this will reoccur every year (is that right?!).
If this thing is anywhere near 1% mortality, the US really is in for a tough time.
Yeah, you're right, that is stunning
I really need to call my folks now.
