FLU PANDEMIC (1918)
The 1918 Flu pandemic Flecknoe, D., Charles Wakefield, B., & Simmons, A. (2018). Plagues & wars: the 'Spanish Flu'pandemic as a lesson from history. Medicine, Conflict and Survival, 34(2), 61-68. Flecknoe et al. (2018) wrote the article to communicate to the readers that these outbreaks can be preventable and are also capable of causing a lot of damage to human societies. They discuss the damage caused by the pandemic, which came shortly after the world war which claimed more than 20 million lives. The outbreak further destroyed more people than World War I did. In comparing the two cases, they show that worldwide pandemics can do more destruction than war could ever do.
