How many people have died Tals, or more importantly, what proportion of people who have it have died?

Not suggesting its not a real threat, but theres a lot of fuss being made about something that seems relatively benign. FOR GODS SAKE PEOPLE, DONT YOU KNOW THAT THE FAT OLD SCOTTISH WOMAN DIDNT WIN THAT TALENT SHOW THING!

not to trivialise individual's and their families' suffering but Swine Flue when compared to HIV (also originally a foreign bug from apes)/TB/Malaria etc...?
