Das tödliche Virus: Grippe
« on: July 26, 2006, 04:42:22 AM »

Die Impfgegner lügen gnadenlos, auch über die Gefährlichkeit der Grippe. Die sei ja sooooo harmlos. Die Wahrheit ist, daß es ab 1918 eine riesige Grippe-Epidemie gegeben hat, bei der Millionen Menschen gestorben sind.

Zur Zeit gibt es eine Onlineausstellung amerikanischer Archive. Ich habe eine Webseite daraus übernommen. In dieser Webseite sind sehr viele Links, die ich hier aber NICHT einfüge. Es soll sich jeder die Seite im Original ansehen. Mir kommt es auf die Beschreibungen an, die ich hier fett hervorgehoben habe.

The 1918 Influenza Pandemic (Photos)
March 13, 2018 by Richard Green, posted in Digitization, Photographs, World War I   

This post was written in collaboration with Kevin Quinn, Sarah Lepianka, and Katherine Stinson – Archives Technicians in the Still Photos Branch. 

The 1918 Influenza Pandemic, also known as the Spanish Flu, was one of the deadliest events in human history.  While fighting between the Allied Powers and the Central Powers raged on in Europe, the disease knew no borders.  Conservative estimates place the worldwide death toll at 30 million people, with reported cases in large cities and remote regions of the world alike.*

    Fascinating and terrifying. My grandmother died in this outbreak in 1920. She had endured a terrible refugee journey during WW1. On her return to her home town, London, she barely had time to reunite with her family. The virus killed her leaving her 3 young children in the care of her parents.
