Prove to me that bird flu will call more folks than a nuke attack on NYC.

One can have estimates, but the only way to "prove" it is to have a bird flu pandemic and nuke NYC and then compare the number of dead bodies. Seems to me that's an unreasonable request, but I'm sure it can be arranged.

The Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918 killed some 20-40 million people; that's not shabby.
