24 How did the Spanish flu kill 50 million in a time when people lived far apart and the world had very little travel. Was it a weapon to end the ww1? (www.cdc.gov) posted 3 years ago by Stko 3 years ago by Stko +25 / -1 28 comments share 28 comments share save hide report block hide replies
people lived close together and there was a lot of travel.
does that answer your question?
That was my belief as well. However, the pandemic virus itself spread faster than the modes of travel that were available during that time.
The disease was able to spread far faster and cover greater distances than people would have been able to move in the same time period.
