Story
In the winter of 1918, at the height of World War I, history's most lethal influenza virus erupted in an army camp in Kansas, moved east with American troops, then exploded, killing as many as 100 million people worldwide. It killed more people in 24 weeks than AIDS has killed in 24 years, more in a year than the Black Death killed in a century. But this was not the Middle Ages, and 1918 marked the first collision between modern science and epidemic disease.

Story
The Spanish Flu was the worst disaster to have occurred in modern history. It began to erupt in 1918 and spread to become an epidemic affecting communities. As it was also a time of war, the epidemic became a pandemic because of the travelling soldiers who unknowingly became the carriers of the deadly virus.

Story
Imagine a scenario where some of your healthiest friends around you suddenly start exhibiting symptoms of a very severe form of pneumonia, followed by desperate struggles to clear their airways of a blood-tinged froth that’s also gushing from their eyes and mouth (within hours of developing the flu) and soon after, clueless doctors watch them suffocate to death. That’s what some survivors were reporting, and believe me, it was worse than it sounds here.

In the case of the recent virus, the most ideal carrier animal is a bat or snake. Since humans don’t consume snakes and bats in several areas of the world but in some places like China they are consumed, it is suspected that the new outbreak is linked to the consumption of an infected bat. The same is the cause for other virus outbreaks in the past.

Narcissism is viewed as a negative personality trait for a reason. People who have been in a romantic relationship with a narcissistic partner confess to experiencing tough emotional and psychological torment that almost ruins them. Why does this happen? This happens because Narcissists have specific personality types that they attract and are attracted to because they are easy to manipulate. Unfortunately, Narcissists attract opposite personality types who portray empathy and concern for others.

Publisher's Summary
Are you looking for a complete history on the pandemic? Then keep reading...
A pandemic is transmittable disease that can significantly boost morbidity and death over a vast geographical area and also trigger considerable financial, social, and even political interruption.
Evidence recommends that the probability of pandemics has enhanced over the past century due to increased global traveling and even combination, urbanization, changes in land use, and also better exploitation of the native environment. These trends likely will continue and also will intensify.
Considerable policy focus has focused on the need to recognize as well as limit emerging breakouts that could lead to pandemics and to increase and maintain financial investment to build preparedness as well as wellness capacity. Despite these enhancements, substantial voids and challenges exist in global pandemic readiness. Progress toward satisfying the IHR has been uneven, and many nations have been not able to meet fundamental requirements for conformity.
Multiple outbreaks have subjected gaps about the prompt discovery of the disease, accessibility of standard care, tracing of contacts, quarantine, as well as readiness outside the health and wellness sector, including international control and response mobilization. These spaces are particularly evident in resource-limited settings and have presented difficulties throughout reasonably localized epidemics, with dangerous effects wherefore may happen throughout a global pandemic.
For this phase, an epidemic is "the incident in a community or region of instances of a health problem over normal expectations". A pandemic is specified as "an epidemic taking place over a substantial location, crossing global limits, and also usually affecting a large number of individuals".
Pandemics are, therefore, recognized by their geographical range rather than the intensity of ailment. For instance, in contrast to yearly seasonal flu epidemics, pandemic flu is defined as "when a brand-new flu virus arises and spreads around the globe, and also most people do not have immunity".
There is no question that pandemics are human-made or as a result of inoculation programs, starvation, poor health, as well as antibiotics, every one of which compromises the body's immune system. The viral infection is a result of health problems, not its cause, equally as germs are capable of infecting just harmful, weak, or broken cells. Germs and infections do not viciously or indiscriminately attack us. Nature does not combat versus itself, and if it did, we would all be dead.
There is no battle between human beings as well as nature unless naturally, we attempt to ruin it or disturb the equilibrium of natural forces and also resources and subsequently describe the rebalancing process as disease or all-natural disaster. Still, the masses have fallen for this pseudoscience as it has been deftly presented to them.
This audiobook includes topics about the past and present pandemics:
- The meaning of the word "pandemic"
- Pandemic general causes
- Smallpox
- Malaria
- Cholera
- Tuberculosis
- Spanish influenza (1918-20)
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
- Ebola virus
- Impact analysis: social, economic, political
