Old stats, please
editDoes anybody have older data?
The CDC tells us that The 1968 pandemic was caused by an influenza A (H3N2) virus comprised of two genes from an avian influenza A virus, including a new H3 hemagglutinin, but also contained the N2 neuraminidase from the 1957 H2N2 virus. It was first noted in the United States in September 1968. The estimated number of deaths was 1 million worldwide and about 100,000 in the United States.
Of course, political pundits would like to add that this number was before vaccinations, but I'm not going to go there. By point is, that we need more data here to show the what the flu can do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.153.156.132 (talk) 07:29, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

I sent a note to CDC via their online form:
