Sometimes researching a family really makes you stop and think - a couple (relatives of mine in #Blackburn) had 8 children and only 1 survived infancy. In March 1918, they (age 81 & 82), their one surviving son (47) and his wife (43) all died of #pneumonia within just 25 days.

The 1918 flu pandemic.

This is on a short list of the best articles I read in 2024.

On the day of RFK Jr's health secretary grilling, this is a vital reminder of the tremendous benefit humanity has received from global vaccines.

Those who don't know #history are doomed to repeat it. We are currently reliving the early 1900's. The #Titanic Sinking, The #SpanishFlu, Hoover's #Smoot-HawleyTariffAct, the #StockMarketCrash, followed by the #GreatDepression and #WW2 are all being repeated now, 100 years later.

And worldwide? Initial research is showing numbers close to (possibly exceeding) the estimated mortality from #SpanishFlu (and #Covid19 is not over, yet)

Reading Gabriele tergit’s fantastic novel the Effingers is teaching me things: the 1918 Spanish flu actually started an Kansas, but wartime censorship meant it didn’t get to be known until it “went” to Spain. #Tergit #effingers #spanishflu

Trenches weren't the only killer in #WWI. Infectious diseases, malnutrition and shell shock claimed as many lives as combat itself, and wartime #censorship even gave the #Spanishflu its misleading name. Read below!

Do you think that pandemics strengthen extreme parties, especially the far right? As @sbauernschuster.bsky.social from our university and his co-authors show in this study, this was not the case in Weimar Germany in the constituencies most affected by the #Spanishflu 🧪

Lessons from the Spanish flu: Why we must keep talking about the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Spanish flu killed over 50 million and was quickly forgotten after it passed. A similar silence is emerging after the peak of COVID-19, raising concern we’re repeating history.
