      Influenza virus is segmented that is it undergoes genetic ressortment which causes antigentic shift which in simple words cases virus to rapidy mutate...so even vaccine will not be helpful since it will protect against only particular strain
      The treatment if it hits today is simple steroids coz most cases of spanish flu were due to body hyper immune reaction against the viral antigens which caused exudate to fill up in lungs so people caoudnt breath

    Spanish influenza 1918 to 1920. It is the centennial anniversary. We are all here because our ancestors survived, probably, the worse pandemic of modern times ever. However, the Spanish influenza is thought to be only dormant. When will it come back? Will it come back in a dense urban center with several airports running 24 hours a day, trains departing constantly, and autobile traffic coming in and out of the major urban center? Where will the flights land? Where will the trains stop? Where will the automobile traffic be going? The possibilities are terrifying.
    Why is it that your neighbour has not been out of his house in two weeks and he was coughing up blood when he went in? Where did he say he took a flight from? What did he eat there? Why have his kids not been outside the house either? Why was a flight that landed in your city refused disembarking, not allowed to leave, and not allowed to communicate with the outside? Why are homeless disappearing in record numbers? Why are some hospitals closing their doors to enter or leave? Are you feeling okay? Are you sure? How long have you been feeling tired?

    Yes there was a flu vaccine in 1918, in fact, the soldiers received 14 different vaccines before crossing over to Europe, many had never been tested together before, a bad interaction between two untested vaccines could very well be the cause of the pandemic because when the soldiers started coming back extremely ill, doctors started vaccinating the general public as well.

      You are stating completely false information! The very beginning of the actual human clinical test trials for the first flu or influenza vaccine didn't start until the early to mid 1930s until 1945. It took decades before ANY live human flu vaccine tests to study and do research to understand the complexities of the normal flu itself.
