WHO Meeting Warns of Flu Pandemic (washingtonpost.com):
"If the three flu pandemics in the 20th century are models, one-fifth to one-third of the world population might be infected in the next one. Even if only 1 percent were to die, as some experts predict, it would cause huge social and economic disruption. The 'Spanish flu' pandemic of 1918-1919 killed at least 50 million people. "
