Can anyone provide data/links on the infection mortality of

Swine Flu vs COVID for those under age 50?

I know Swine was killing young people. From what I've heard/remember often they were pretty healthy.

I was in grad school at the time. Remember taking extra sanitation steps in Organic Chem labs I taught. Other than that really no changes.

Any good numbers?

Swine Flu had a lower mortality rate than the typical flu.

The typical flu cfr in UK
0-14 .04%
15-44 .13%
45-64 .93%
65+ 14.5%

Louisiana covid cfr

Cases/Deaths- CFR,

70+ 9939/2233- 22.4%
60-69 9082/585- 6.4%
50-59 11478/288- 2.5%
40-49 11745/116- .98%
30-39 12623/59 .46%
18-29 16725/11 .06%
<18. 5051/3 .06%

About the same CFR under 40. Covid is 2 to 3 times higher over 40.
