Here's your heads up that if there is another 'Covid wave' that it is almost never seen before in naturally occurring pandemics throughout history.

"There were 3 different waves of illness during the pandemic, starting in March 1918 and subsiding by summer of 1919. The pandemic peaked in the U.S. during the second wave... This highly fatal second wave was responsible for most of the U.S. deaths"...

"A third wave of illness occurred during the winter and spring of 1919, adding to the pandemic death toll. The third wave of the pandemic subsided during the summer of 1919."

Another failed 'fact check.' Whoops.

"Fact check: There is no universal pandemic trajectory; COVID-19 may not have worse 2nd wave"...

(This isn't arguing that all pandemics are the same, but the counter-argument here turned out to be false)
