My g g grandfather and his wife and four of their kids died in the 1918 flu epidemic. All within a few days of each other.
My mom (1914-2012) told me and my 3 siblings that she was sick during that epidemic, and she barely made it.
1918 vs 2018 ... Well at least we have iv fluids and hospitals to keep us alive now.
