Between 2003 and November 2024, the World Health Organization has recorded 948 cases of confirmed H5N1 influenza, leading to 464 deaths.[2] The true fatality rate may be lower because some cases with mild symptoms may not have been identified as H5N1.[3]
As we learned from covid, or relearned, really, these numbers mean nothing when people who died are thoroughly investigated, but the vast majority of people with mild or no symptoms from their infection are not tested.
