Do you want to learn more about the Spanish Flu and its consequences? If your answer is yes, then keep reading
1918 has to be considered a terrible and sad year for our forefathers. Hopeful soldiers were so glad to be returning from WWI. They were coming home to their families and loved ones in the hope of seeing their spouses and children. Instead, they were greeted by one of the worst pandemics ever to hit the modern-day World.
They did not know at the time that they were part of the problem because they did not realize the flu had followed them home. During this time, there was so little known about how the flu was being transferred between humans or some other source because it had not yet been identified.
The one thing that everyone did know was that people were dying at such a rapid rate. It was unbelievable. You might be feeling fine one day, and within 36 hours, you were dead, and whatever it was, it was spreading like wildfire.
This book covers:
- The history of the spanish influence of 1918
- Socio-economic consequences of the world's worst crisis in those years.
- Vaccine against influence, the case of the Pfeiffer vaccine
- Reasons for the expansion of an epidemic
- Dealing with self-isolation
- The war and virus that changed world
- Between the Spanish flu 1918 and convid19 assessment

Описание: My lifetime encompasses the postwar subsidence in the early 1920s of the greatest influenza pandemic in history, direct encounters with FM1 virus at Fort Mon- mouth in 1947, the care of influenza patients in the 1950s, the pursuit of the in- fluenza virus through the modern pandemics of 1957 and 1968, and a present in which the genes of the virus have dissembled in the DNA of vaccinia virus and Escherichia coli through the wand of high tech. If my corpus could be fossilized for archival and archaeological purposes, it would be found to contain immune cells branded with the imprint of the swine influenza virus of post-1918 and brain cells no less imprinted with memories of the abortive return of its descendant during America's bicentennial. But before that unlikely event, I wanted to try to make some sense out of this baffling dis- ease and its viruses-expecting no definitive revelations but hoping for a sharper definition of problems. Hence this book. It is an audacious act in these days of specialization to essay a book such as this singlehandedly, but I have done so for selfish reasons. I wanted to reexam- ine old questions about the nature of influenza and its epidemics in the light of the dazzling advances in molecular biology of the past few years. No virus has been better studied, but few diseases are less well understood.
