#WWI fostered influenza in the crowded conditions of military camps in the U.S. & in the trenches of the Western Front in Europe.
The virus traveled with military personnel from camp to camp and across the Atlantic.

#SpanishFlu #COVID19 #SARSCoV2
The 1918 #H1N1 influenza pandemic caused 500,000-700,000 deaths in the U.S.— almost 200,000 of them in Oct. 1918 alone— & an estimated 30-40 million deaths worldwide, mostly among people aged 15-35 years.
World-wide transporting of #WW1 military troops was the reason.
#SpanishFlu
The 1918 influenza pandemic was caused by an #H1N1 virus with genes of avian origin. It was first identified in U.S. military personnel in spring 1918.
500 million people or one-third of the world’s population became infected with this virus.

The U.S. military grew from just 378,000 strong in April 1917 to more than 4.7 million by war's end, with an Army of 4.1 million and a Navy of 600,000.
Influenza and pneumonia killed more American soldiers and sailors during the war than did enemy weapons.
#SpanishFlu
After the lethal second wave struck in late 1918, new cases dropped abruptly – almost to nothing after the peak in the second wave.
The #COVID19 flu virus, #SARSCoV2 was transported into the northeast U.S. by unrestricted travel from Italy and the rest of Europe to New York, from which it was spread by foreign and domestic travelers throughout the U.S.
Spread of the #SARSCoV2 virus most likely began mid-2019 in northern Italy which has a huge population of Chinese immigrant workers.
One or more travelers from that population probably transported it to Wuhan, China where it was first detected and scientifically analyzed.
The vast majority of Italy's 300,000 Chinese immigrants live in the northern part of Italy, which also happens to be the epicenter of the #SARSCoV2 #COVID19 #coronavirus outbreak.
Milan, the Italian region where the most #coronavirus victims have died, is also home to Europe's largest population of Chinese immigrants, many of them with a direct connection to Wuhan.

Scientists in Italy have found traces of the #SARSCoV2 #coronavirus in wastewater collected from Milan and Turin in December 2019, suggesting #COVID19 was already circulating in northern Italy before China reported the first cases.

Germ transmission from a toilet seat is a relatively small health risk compared with what happens after you flush. Bits of fecal matter swish around so violently they can be propelled into the air, become aerosolized and then settle on the surroundings.

Talk about #coronavirus & shit sprays started back when the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention published research indicating that people with confirmed cases of #COVIS19 had the live virus in their stool samples.

Among countless other intricately designed transmissible causes of death, #SARSCoV2 was designed by GOD as one of seven known #coronaviruses (out of hundreds) to terminate the lives of the oldest & most immunocompromised humans in the world.

No matter how much effort or self-discipline is exercised by any individual, humans were not designed by GOD to live without life-threatening health problems much beyond seventy years when most will have succumbed to any of countless causes of death — accidents, wars, diseases.
Psalms 90:10
We live for 70 years, or 80 years if we're healthy, yet even in the “prime” years there are troubles and sorrow. They pass by quickly and we [our spirits] “fly away” [back to GOD, who gave them].
International Standard Version
Most humans, especially Americans, don’t put much effort into achieving or maintaining whatever is the best their bodies could become be if they didn’t eat too much of their favorite "unhealthy" foods , or indulge in legal or illegal substance abuse and other hazardous behavior.
Not only does obesity compromise one’s health throughout a person’s life, it almost guarantees an earlier than expected death from any obesity-related morbidity, including #COVID19.
"#Obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the United States and in much of the westernized world, contributing to considerable morbidity. Several of these obesity-related morbidities are associated with greater risk for death with #coronavirus disease 2019 #COVID19."
"Obese patients also have worse outcomes with #COVID19 infection, including respiratory failure, need for mechanical ventilation, & higher mortality. Clinicians need to be more aggressive when treating obese, or severely obese patients with COVID-19."

If one looks at the #SARSCoV2 influenza infection curves in all areas around the world, they are all following the same patterns of seasonal flu regardless of most of what is done by diverse policies and efforts to alter the curve.

#COVID19
#NY began its #COVID19 case intensity earlier because of far more unimpeded infected travelers bringing it in from Europe.
NY is now declining earlier as should be expected. They did nothing other states haven’t also done from the beginning to cause their curve to drop sooner.
States like California, Texas, and Florida had far less early exposure from European travelers and started the intensity of their curve rises later, but their peaks are now beginning to decline and will continue to drop, just as NY’s curve has.
#CoronaVirus #COVID19
Early starters, like Italy, France, Spain, & Germany, show similar progressions & dropping new case curves.
Warmer, humid weather isn’t able to have its usual natural mitigating effect when millions are living in home “bubbles” rebreathing cold, air-conditioned, dehumidified air.
Most of the minimal risk of acquiring the #coronavirus comes from what’s left behind by others’ behinds.
That’s the main reason the virus spreads so fast in certain locations like #nursinghomes & jails where people can’t or don’t give a shit about personal, or group sanitation.
Dictatorial masking mandates may be preventing some gluttons from increasing their #COVID19 risks from continually eating far too much at restaurants and fast-food joints, but it’s killing the businesses.
Masks can’t stop the intensifying risks of being severely harmed by Americans’ loss of income, loss of careers, loss of homes, loss of education, loss of stabilizing religious influences, & loss of desire to give a shit about preserving what is becoming another lost civilization.
Among countless other intricately designed transmissible causes of death, #SARSCoV2 was designed by GOD as one of seven known #coronaviruses (out of hundreds) to terminate the lives of the oldest & most immunocompromised humans in the world. threadreaderapp.com/thread/1286110…
#Coronaviruses were designed to efficiently terminate the lives of the oldest and/or the most #immunocompromised individuals of any targeted species.
Enhance your own state of health every day, but no one should expect to live forever in a mortal body.
