I have te o questions for you. One, what percentage of Americans died from Spanish Flu? Two, how long were masks required in San Francisco during that outbreak.
The answer to those two questions reveals the insanity of current “public health” mandates.
Two questions. Sorry for the typo.
The answer to #1 is 675k dead out of 103MM, so approximately 0.5% of the population of the USA died of the Spanish Flu.
The Spanish flu had two outbreaks. The initial one and then a second outbreak that was a result of a parade in Philly to promote givernment binds fir WW1. The second outbreak was much worse than the first.
Authorities did not want the parade to happen, but they had it anyway.
Not so coincidently it is surmised that the Spanish flu also originated in China.
Who knows how long people wore masks.
To put your question #1 in perspective, the Spanish Flu killed roughly 200k in the USA in the first year. We are halfway through the first year of COVID-19, at 150k deaths in the USA. If we have the same number of deaths in the USA for the second half of the year, for a total of 300k in 2020, then COVID-19 will have proven nearly as deadly as the Spanish Flu.
The population of the USA in 1918 was 103MM. The population in 2020 is 330MM. The Spanish Flu killed 0.19% of Americans the first year. If current numbers continue, COVID-19 will kill 0.09% of Americans during its first year, making COVID-19 approximately half as deadly as the Spanish Flu, and making it five times deadlier than seasonal flu (0.018% for last flu season.)
The virus is not a joke.
