But the strand of the flu didn’t just disappear. The influenza virus continuously mutated, passing through humans, pigs and other mammals. The pandemic-level virus morphed into just another seasonal flu. Descendants of the 1918 H1N1 virus make up the influenza viruses we’re fighting today.
“The 1918 flu is still with us, in that sense,” said Ann Reid, the executive director of the National Center for Science Education who successfully sequenced the genetic makeup of the 1918 influenza virus in the 1990s. “It never went away.”

I was watching Kate Dalley show podcast she played Gerald Ford said 50 millions died from 1918 Spanish flu, she said kinda overblown. Late Rush Limbaugh said it wasn't really that worldwide panic as World War I was ending, the hyped C0VID-19 that would mostly show mild common cold. Here's website that lists of people died in U.S. kinda wonder why other states nothing listed, oh cause of death mostly not Spanish flu.

Slowing the spread increased the mutations in COVID. Wearing a warm, nasty mask is like a beach vacation for viruses.
There is evidence the same political victors in 2020 were involved in creating this plandemic for their own wealth and power.
