Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - June 27 +

alert I would agree with you that sooner or later we will have to give up counting deaths. My feeling is that our numbers are already inaccurate, and will only get further from reality as more fatalities occur. This list is only a rough sketch of the situation in the U.S., but maybe a rough sketch is better than simply remaining silent about it. The only analogy I can think of is this: walking in a pitch black tunnel, would you rather have a candle flame, or no light at all?

thebes yes, I think the report of 2 more deaths in Philadelphia today would be our Pennsylvania #4 and one new one.

Assuming I didn't smell gas, I'd rather have the candle. But the gas is this:

We are going to continue to get estimates to the total number infected in the US (over 1 million so far), so if we keep this artifically low count of deaths, we will provide evidence for an artificially low CFR. We have already read a few articles that say this virus is milder than seasonal flu by making comparisons such as that one. At some point, the best solution is simply to estimate deaths by taking the known CFR (right now about 0.4% - use that figure until someone demonstrates genetic evidence of a mutation) and multiplying it by the total number of estimated cases.

Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - June 27 +

I wouldn't want our numbers, such as they are, to give anyone an excuse to downplay the severity of H1N1. I don't really believe that "158" is the real number of deaths in the U.S., and I'm sure neither does anyone else.

I have a diplomatic solution to your problem. Can we say that this list is a representation of individual deaths as described and reported by the media, and leave it to the statistics models to portray the true number of fatalities?

[thebes]

Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - June 27 +

I think it's important to keep this list for a few reasons:

1. To the extent that we can, we're attaching names, faces & stories to the victims so that they're not just a statistic. It's important to remember that these are real people whose loss we all mourn.

2. Even if it's not a comprehensive list, it will show patterns of infection and course of the disease which will give us an early indication of where it's spreading and if the flu's virulence is changing.

3. Like the rest of this site, it will be a historical record that can help researchers reconstruct the course of this pandemic and perhaps help in mitigating future pandemics.

Just my thoughts....

More on the latest death in Texas - he was Ron Stowe, a 49-year-old father of four who, according to his wife, had no underlying health problems. There's a picture of him at the link

Pflugerville man is county's first to die of swine flu
By Mary Ann Roser

AMERICAN-STATESMAN STAFF


Tuesday, June 30, 2009

A 49-year-old man from Pflugerville is the first person in Travis County to die of swine flu and the 14th known death in Texas, health authorities said Monday.

Ron Stowe, a father of four who would have celebrated his 25th wedding anniversary this summer, died Saturday at Scott & White Memorial Hospital in Temple, his wife, Lauren Stowe, said. He had been airlifted from Scott & White University Medical Campus in Round Rock on June 13, two days after his diagnosis, she said.

Stowe, 44, did not know how her husband became infected and said he had no underlying health conditions. "He was in perfect health," she said. No one else in the family is ill, she added.

Stowe said her husband was a sales and service manager for Wells Fargo financial company, "put family first" and was strong in his faith.

"I am in shock," she said through her tears. "He was the glue of our family."

Their children are Ali, 20, Aaron, 16, Victoria, 15, and Nathan, 11.

The Austin/Travis County Health and Human Services Department reported the death Monday afternoon and is investigating. It does not provide patients' names or other identifying information.

Dr. Philip Huang, medical director for the health department, said in a written statement that "given the fact that several deaths in Texas and hundreds globally have occurred due to this illness ? this is not an unexpected event. We continue to coordinate with local, state and national partners to monitor the spread of this illness."

As of Wednesday, Travis County had 127 confirmed and six probable cases of swine flu, or H1N1, according to the Texas Department of State Health Services, which updates the count weekly. The Austin/Travis County health department's combined figure was 114. Local health department spokeswoman Carole Barasch said the state data may include some noncounty residents.

In Texas, the state health department has reported 2,982 confirmed and probable cases of swine flu in 95 counties. Nationally, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported Friday that there were 27,717 confirmed and probable cases and 127 deaths.

However, those are "really just the tip of the iceberg," Dr. Anne Schuchat, a leading CDC expert, said last week. The CDC thinks more than 1 million Americans are infected with the H1N1 virus, she said. Most are younger than 25, she said.

The median age of hospitalized patients is 19, while the median age for people who have died from swine flu is 37 ? "still quite young for anyone to be dying of an infectious disease," Schuchat told reporters last week.

To prevent the illness, health officials advise frequent hand washing, staying home when ill and covering coughs and sneezes.

Appleblossom,

I don't know where Rhiza Labs gets their data, but they are showing one additional death in CT (7) and UT (11). I've been searching for reports on these, but haven't found anything yet.

[appleblossom]

Re: FluTrackers Confirmed U.S. Deaths - June 27 +

Jim, thanks. that's definitely odd. I haven't seen those numbers anywhere else. If you find any reference links for the extra fatalities in Connecticut or Utah definitely let us know!
