I watched the video which is
based on the flu and it was shown the era of 1918. The United States was a
vigorous young nation. It is described in the video that soldiers at an army
base suddenly began to die near Boston. The doctors and the paramedical staffs researched
and observed to identify the cause of deaths and they found reason actual reason
of these deaths in the army camps. The reason of deaths was determined as
influenza while it was contrasting any strain ever seen. It is also shown in
the video that a dangerous virus was consecutively spreading in the country.
Because of the virus, hospitals overfilled with the patients and many deaths were
seen in this era. The dead bodies of the patients were wandered in the streets.
A threat and danger were in the streets and no one wants to go out because in
the initial days of spreading the influenza there were limited patients in the
hospitals but in a week, more than 500 cases were registered. A woman was
describing the situation that her whole family was suffering from this flu and
she was also very sick in childhood. In the month of September, around 12000
innocent people died of influenza in America. October was very cruel and every
person who has influenza died. Due to this flu, it killed half of the Indians.
The influenza kills the young, vigorous and robust adult. The flu killed 80% of
men. President Woodrow Wilson faced an agonizing decision. Almost 850 people
died in single day. By performing considerable actions as the curfew and proper
treatment reduced the impacts and controlled the situation.
