Do you have a source for the CFR of 0.1 for H1N1? I could only find this[1], which is a much smaller number. [1] http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/8406723.stm

- ineedasername 7y agoYou may be looking at "settled" numbers when all was said & done and all facts were known. That's not an "apples to apples" comparison with current covid-19 knowledge. Here's my source [0] and the relevant quote, below. It is the CFR during the H1N1 pandemic, 10 weeks into it, which is why it is a much more appropriate (though not perfect) "apples to apples" comparison with Covid-19: >"The overall case fatality rate as of 16 July 2009 (10 weeks after the first international alert) with pandemic H1N1 influenza varied from 0.1% to 5.1% depending on the country."
