Never trust rounded off numbers-they lie!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 480936


I don't know if there were 10% of the US Population die or not, but I know that there were more die that people commonly are aware. I remember my parents and especially my grandparents talk about it quite a bit.

I remember my Great Grandmother talk about the Spanish Flu Pandemic, she lost a son and her mother during that time. Some 640,000 in the US, and 30 - 40 million worldwide died in that.

They talked about these two events in the same hushed tones.
