To date, the pecks have killed 78% as many people as the birdemic in Taiwan, and that figure has been increasing steadily at a rate of about three percentage points a week. If present trends continue, it should hit 100% right around October 10 -- a.k.a. Double Tenth Day, the National Day of the Republic of China.

I hold to the theory that the peck will make birdemic outcomes worse, therefore if they wait long-enough perhaps "deaths by birdemic" (i.e. peck adverse reactions) will once again outweigh the immediate follow-on deaths.
