Drives me nuts when people say the common flu kills 600,000 people per year.
"We estimated an average of 389 000 (uncertainty range 294 000-518 000) respiratory deaths were associated with influenza globally each year during the study period, corresponding to ~ 2% of all annual respiratory deaths. Of these, 67% were among people 65 years and older."

This is not the common flu. I have read estimates from credible sources that this will affect 60-70% of the worlds population, and have a 2-4% mortality rate. The demographic remains the same, elderly trend.
Call it a conservative 40%, and conservative 2% mortality rate.
7.767 billion population
That = 62 million deaths . The deaths are not even what catches my attention. It is the havoc that will surround all of this.
