However, every large-scale disaster is always accompanied by warmth among human beings. This year, the whole world was hit hard by the COVID-19 epidemic, but the contact between countries and regions under the epidemic was not blocked by the arrival of the epidemic. And vice versa? The spread of masks and protective clothing? 、? Rescue of cattle and sheep relief materials? This warm scene, really under the epidemic, in the dark, gave countless people warmth.
19 18: a year that the world should remember 19 14, World War I was first provoked by Germany. Allies VS allies? The large-scale battle began. In the next four years, some countries were exhausted and withdrew from this muddy water; On the contrary, several countries stepped in one after another according to the development of the war situation. 19 18, allied forces? Is about to be completely defeated? The signal has begun to appear, which means that the world war with more than100000 casualties is coming to an end.
There are unexpected events in the sky. At the critical moment when the war is coming to an end, the outcome is not an allied alliance, but a catastrophe worse than World War I, that is, the Spanish virus. Call it? Spanish virus? But the birthplace of this virus is not Spain, but the United States. Specifically, the virus originated from a military camp in Fenston, Kansas, USA in February of that year. Why do you use it? Spanish virus? It was named because the flu killed 8 million people in Spain. Compared with Spain, 500,000 people died in America.
? Spanish lady? Spanish virus originated in America? After ravaging the past, someone named this flu? Spanish lady? The name seems amiable, but in fact, in my opinion, it is more contemporary and empirical. It sounded the alarm for today's world, and named the flu that endangered human destiny and claimed 40 million lives a hundred years ago.
The virus was first discovered in February 19 18 in Fenston Barracks, Kansas, USA. On March 12, a soldier in the military camp suddenly suffered from sore throat, fever, headache and other symptoms, because the symptoms were very similar to those of a cold, and something was wrong at that time? Spanish virus? The precedent came, so the soldier just thought he had a common cold. Surprisingly, more than 100 soldiers in the barracks happened to have the same disease, sore throat, fever and headache.
The weekend is coming. Is this 100 people? Suspected cold? Before it slowed down, 500 soldiers increased dramatically. Before the diagnosis, the army arrived in Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania, and basically walked the whole world along the sea in less than three months. Of course, it is also contagious. If the medical equipment and medical level were advanced at that time, the epidemic situation a hundred years ago would not have developed to tens of millions of casualties. But this is only if.
Spanish flu? It is the most serious virus in history and the virus with the largest number of infections and deaths. According to statistics afterwards, there are more than 500 million infected people in the world, and the infection rate is as high as 20% ~ 40%. However, the incubation period of this epidemic is relatively long. According to statistics, there are 500,000 deaths in the United States. According to relevant people's memories, there was a woman standing in front of her house. In three hours, a total of 26 funeral procession passed by the door.
So what effect did the Spanish virus have on China? China has not been spared, on the contrary, it has brought many bad influences to China.
At that time, the Spanish flu first landed in Guangzhou and then began to sweep across the country. No one recorded the death toll this time, but China certainly suffered a lot of trauma. At that time, at least one third of people in Beijing were infected, and 107 people in Wenzhou died of influenza. It is said that the coffin was in short supply at that time. In addition, there were many Japanese in Taiwan Province Province at that time, so the data record was very accurate. At the time of the first wave of virus attacks, there were about 800,000 people.
The numbers alone are shocking. For China at that time, the Spanish virus originated in the United States had a great influence on China at that time.
