Thank you so much for your response Lissa, it was thought provoking!
Now that is a sobering and scary analogy to consider! I wonder if the Corona and Influenza viruses could act in a similar way inside the human body as to cause a repeat the Spanish flu pandemic? CNN has been reporting that Wuhan is expecting to get hit with a second wave with some stations jumping the gun and claiming Wuhan is seeing many more sick, however after more than a month of speculation and Wuhan opening back up for business, that just hasn't materialized yet. Let's all hope COVID-19 is dissimilar to the Spanish flu enough for us not to have a second wave. And thank you again for sharing!

The scary aspect is this, the Spanish Flu had an initial number of cases in the spring, but the worst was yet to come in the fall of 1918 where the majority of infections and deaths occurred.
