If you look up the 1918-19 flue epidemic on google or similar you can see that between 20-40 million people died from that. We are nowhere near those figures and our medical folk continue to make good progress in dealing with this thing.
OT, my grandfather was an air force engineer in WWI, he was assigned to the engines that rewinded kite ballons cables. He lived the war AND got spanish flu, and made through both. (My son is named after him ) |
