During the 1916 flu, they didn't do tests either. They counted bodies, and figured they died from the flu. I think that was a pretty fair guess.

My wife relays her grandmother's story of lying in a window seat recovering from the flu in 1916 and watching bodies being carried from the houses along the street. (Gave her nightmares for the rest of her life.)

That would have been a horrifying thing to have gone through. I’ve been noticing that many of us newer generations have simply not seen the horrors which the past generations have seen.
