This page has an error: Under SDH, it is cited:

"They kill about 60% to 80% of people who have them.[3]"

According to the source cited, Pure ASDH - acute subdural hemorrhage due to ruptured aneurysm specifically has a poor prognosis in 42% of cases - only 21% of them died. Simple traumatic SHD has an identical mortality rate, for which they cite a different article. Stating that SHD has a 60 - 80% mortality rate is a substantial misrepresentation.
