And 50,000,000 died worldwide. I would be wearing a space suit if a people were dropping dead in the streets

TBH I probably would’ve worn a mask if the Spanish Flu was going around, too. Little bit scarier than the big bad Rona.

The joke is on everyone here. Those are actually all of the UGA fans taking over the Tech stadium back in 1918
They all left after the pic was taken.

Read about the 1918 influenza pandemic and progress made in preparedness and response.
675k DEAD IN THE US
Mortality was high in people younger than 5 years old, 20-40 years old, and 65 years and older. The high mortality in healthy people, including those in the 20-40 year age group, was a unique feature of this pandemic. While the 1918 H1N1 virus has been synthesized and evaluated, the properties that made it so devastating are not well understood. With no vaccine to protect against influenza infection and no antibiotics to treat secondary bacterial infections that can be associated with influenza infections, control efforts worldwide were limited to non-pharmaceutical interventions such as isolation, quarantine, good personal hygiene, use of disinfectants, and limitations of public gatherings, which were applied unevenly.

Spanish Flu was actually killing people their age.
This and people want to act as if things like medical practice, scientific discovery, and public sanitation never changed in 102 years.

Spanish flu pandemic was much deadlier than this bullshite.

I think Reggie Ball threw 5 interceptions in that game ... and he didn't have the flu.
