Had this conversation with my parents yesterday -- the flu is percentages of percentages.

First, you have to catch it.
Then you need to be bad enough to be hospitalized.
Then, you might be one of the ones who die.

So, from infection to death you're looking at what.. 1% chance of dying.

With that said, I'm not discounting the deaths by any means -- just saying odds are "you" will be fine.
