replies: text: I agree with this, it seems noteworthy enough, it could probably be expanded out and made into a coherent article.Compoundinterestisboring (talk) 13:25, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed: A notable event in history - my school was closed down for it.  So let it be written, so let it be done... Dinkytown 21:36, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

text: Agree. Let's get this started. Noble-savage (talk) 22:30, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

text: Agree. This should really have its own article. 82.32.8.154 (talk) 10:23, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

text: Agree. I just came here expecting to be able to link to an article on the Hong Kong flu and found it buried in an article about a virus that few could name. Anything that can kill a million people needs an article. 12:33 UTC, 12 Jun 2009 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.44.85.14 (talk) 12:26, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Articles do not write themselves. Don't delete anything in this article, but copy what parts you wish to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hong_Kong_flu&action=edit and expand it. Then you will have your article. WAS 4.250 (talk) 16:05, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

text:  I agree! With the swine flu, people will want to look up past pandemics.  This could ease fear, as well, because it was not the Spanish Flu!:::  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.155.180.20 (talk) 01:39, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: H3N2 detected alongide H1N1 in current H1N1 outbreak 

message: The 36,000 deaths per year are from a CDC study. CDC itself prefers the numbers from a later study, released August 27, 2010. Link and cites follow.
http://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/disease/us_flu-related_deaths.htm
"How do the new estimates compare with the 36,000 figure that is often cited as an estimate of annual flu-associated deaths? The 36,000 estimate was presented in a 2003 study by CDC scientists [...] CDC believes that the range of deaths over the past 31 years (~3,000 to ~49,000) is a more accurate representation of the unpredictability and variability of flu-associated deaths."
The line "H3N2 is increasingly abundant in seasonal influenza, which kills an estimated 36,000 people in the United States each year" might be perhaps changed to something like "H3N2, which is typically associated with a higher death rate, is increasingly abundant in seasonal influenza which, from 1976 to 2007, has killed an estimated 3,000 to 49,000 each year, in the United States", plus link to the CDC page.
Another point (should it be by itself?). At the CDC page, "over the past 31 years" is an error; it obviously refers to the 1976-2007 period, not to the 31 years preceding 2010, when the report came out. I've observed relative time periods mentioned in this article as well (next season, past ten years, last year). Shouldn't they be converted to absolutes?
