WHO declares first flu pandemic in 41 years
Please note; this does NOT mean that it is any more deadly than it has been. It only means that it has spread globally. In NYC, for example (and here I am referencing the NYTimes article) only 0.1% of people who have become infected with the virus have even been hospitalized. That’s a much lower number than the normal strands of the flu we’re used to.
