	The same old pattern - few reported deaths at first, but lots of severe/critical patients.

	http://en.newhub.shafaqna.com/CN/143860-Genes-make-H7N9-nimble-killer-study-finds Scientists have deep concerns about H7N9. Some fear it could be one of the most likely candidates to evolve into a doomsday virus capable of human-to-human infection. The researchers experiments on mice suggested that H7N9 s deadliness to humans came not only from HA and NA - the two proteins on the surface of the virus that help it bind to and detach from host cells - but also three internal genes called PB2, NP and M.
