LEARN FROM EPIDEMIC HISTORY:IN 1918: 675 000 US People Died, 30 000 IN NEW YORK, Only San Francisco escaped cause they took Serious Measures.

There was also a pandemic in 1957 that nobody ever mentions that killed 116, 000 in the USA
and 1.1 million worldwide

You woulda thought they could use what was learned in 1957.
Oops, we forgot about that one.....

.

Here's another excellent piece on the pandemic. You'll find many of the very same statements and reactions on the part of government and local officials, and citizens, that we see today.

I'm guessing the population of SF was probably a whole lot less than the pop of NY back than....So this is a stupid comparison

your link was blocked here as dangerous.
nice try

that was excellent! and here we are again. No different than the Spanish flu...

thank you for that!

In 1918 the U.S. population was about 100,000,000

So expect the deaths today to be at least 3 times 675,000 if Covid-19 is to be comparable to the Spanish flu

The EVENT CHANGE 1918 and the UNSUNG HEROES

Indeed

Already, there have been major episodes of ASIATIC viruses, that originated from China and devasted Europe in the past.

The Black Death in the 13th century and the Spanish Flu in the 19th century.

SARS in 2003


And now the Bat-soup virus!


.

All flu originates from pigs in China and Southeast Asia,right ?

why can't that be cut off at the source , somehow ?

Scary

The EVENT CHANGE of 1918 by the UNSUNG HEROES was not all successful. A third wave of the Spanish Flu hit in 1919 and killed millions.

The UNSUNG HEROES did the best they could then.

And they will still get their ass kicked bad
Soon.

All my respect to Great Heroes

thnx enjoyed the docu and reflecting on it.

the changes between now and then, and the similarities.

I suspect we instinctively understand viruses are an inevitable foe, and we can't change that ultimately.

Perhaps, the positive outcome is we strengthen our immune systems, become self sufficient, and plan for our future with hope, grimly resigned nonetheless to accepting the fate we make... knowing we tried

Jesus man..... today Op was a pretty cool guy.

It's a whole lot less than the pop of NY today.

NY has 13 people for every 1 in San Fran.

Like who cares scoob

10s of millions die every year of other shit...why no death party for them , carona getting all the love just aids 30 years ago

You is like some kind of disease racist pig

the worst case model was 2,2 Million
