"Sequencing results suggested that the ancestor of the 1918 virus infected humans sometime between 1900 and 1915."

Last time a book floored me this much was in 5th/6th grade when I first read #OscarWilde The Picture of Dorian Gray
Did not know I needed a 12 hr book on the history of #antibiotics but apparently I really did
Thought #PaleRider was the most compelling & terrifying; nay I was wrong. The Demon Under the Microscope will explain #sarscov2 #pandemic more so than #SpanishFlu
It’s 1933 all over again

Finally finished #PaleRider & it’s one of those books to def listen/read again
Juxtaposed against these #Grammy photos, what I will say is… until people understand #sarscov2 #Covid19 is NOT the same as the #SpanishFlu everything will get continually worse #xbb15 in LA def
We are NOT in an #endemic
It’s very much still a #pandemic #reinfection b/c there’s really no #immuneMemory to speak of so….
How much longer do we’ve to wait until everyone understands the gravity?

@informatik
For me to not censor f-💣 means I’m really fucking mad.. to the point of screaming & tears simultaneously
It’s🤷🏻♀️”but what can we do” attitude that infuriates me most
Well actually there’s a whole hell of a lot we could do.. I was already spiraling in despair listening to #PaleRider #SpanishFlu realizing we’ve made zero progress in 100 years..but then to see that
We are surrounded by idiots & I do not consent to this. I try to be moderate & calm but I’m about to go off the⛓️
@ZeroCovidColin @wndlb
There’s no comparison between 1918 #spanishFlu & #sarscov2
Yes, some what similar presentation of symptoms, (depression, exhaustion, death etc) ignorance of science despite it existing, wealth gap.. & outcomes where dying at age 30 is normal & living to 50 considered old… but #Covid is closer to #HIV
Also #herdImmunity doesn’t exist here #reinfection & Influenza has been around for far FAR longer than 1918.. so #endemic is #tbh wishful thinking… #idk answer:(

Reminds me of this🧵;6th #massExtinction
Just started #PaleRider Laura Spinney; remarkably published in 2017 #prescient #SpanishFlu
I blame #Reagan for everything #butterflyEffect of sorts
couldn’t explain in a coherent manner as to exactly why..but it just is #educationPolicy #taxes #etc #GenX #Boomers
Sometimes think humans are just bad #microbes in a :agar_plate: 🌏; it doesn’t have to be this way..

If anyone wants to know how we dealt with the Spanish Flu (1918-1920). We didn't.
It was just dumb luck that it became less dangerous. Its descendants carry on infecting people to this day, killing old and vulnerable people every winter.

Unless I am hearing this incorrectly, we gave the Great Influenza of 1918 to pigs?

Melbourne, 1919, and the veteran returns to bad news. Spanish Flu has struck home.

Lunch break at the TLC Mapping - Mapping Culture and History Workshop. All sessions so far have been great. I’m here for tips on improving my #SpanishFlu visualisations.
