Will the Bird Flu decimate our planet?

Answer 1

Not very likely. Yes there have been lots of reports of infections and the resultant deaths. And, yes there well be a lot of deaths should it become a crisis. However, as witnessed by other plagues of years past, there have always been those that have survived the infections and those that were not infected. That said, we could be decimated as a planet if we were to be struck by an asteroid one mile around or larger. That's more likely.
