Where can I find a statistic over the lethalty of bird flu?

You are looking for a figure called the CASE FATALITY RATE.

case fatality = (number of deaths due to disease X) / (total number of cases of disease X)

The World Health Organization may have some statistics about case fatality for H5N1 influenza (avian flu). Check them out at http://www.who.int Source(s): I am an epidemiologist.
Try the official page of the European Union- www.europa.eu.int, I think there was some info.
The CDC may help, or you may try recent special stories or headlines on the news show, ABC tonight news. I saw the series, it scared me very much...
