SARS death rate was ~ 10%During the period of infection, there were 8,098 reported cases of SARS and 774 deaths. This means the virus killed about 1 in 10 people who were infected. People over the age of 65 were particularly at risk, with over half of those who died from the infection being in this age group. source H5N1 is a type of influenza virus that causes a highly infectious, severe respiratory disease in birds called avian influenza (or "bird flu"). Human cases of H5N1 avian influenza occur occasionally, but it is difficult to transmit the infection from person to person. When people do become infected, the mortality rate is about 60%. in the video in this article claims that there are 90,000 cases of the virus (which the Chinese govt says is fake news)that 90,000 people have already been infected (and I'm not sure ANYBODY really knows at this point what the number is BUT IF IT IS 90,000) -- Then to put it in perspective --->stats can be tracked here by this near real time map attributed to John Hopkins
