Italian Epidemic curve still shows that hardest hit provinces (eg Lombardia) still have the highest incidence of new cases. If Lombardy had reached HIT it should have fewer new cases than reltaively unprotected regions.

Ioannidis et al (2020) forecasters.org/blog/2020/06/1… make the claim that the IFR from Spanish Flu was ~100 times worse than that if #COVID19. This claim seems to stem from estimates of 100 million deaths due to Burnet (1979) pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/85614/ and

But these are extreme high end estimates. Patterson & Pyle (1991) jstor.com/stable/44447656 estimate no more than 30 million deaths, and report several lower estimates ../2
