1918 Spanish Flu Epidemic during World War I

Every year, influenza virus makes people sick. Even influenza like the garden can kill people, but usually only very young or very older people. In 1918, influenza became more deadly. In the First World War, 500 million people died, from 500 million people to 100 million people died, and the opportunities for viruses to spread during the Second World War increased. Influenza is spreading, science is not enough to find a cure, and medical staff are very helpless when trying to fight disease.

The loss of human resources and the spread of the Spanish flu continue. Even today, nobody knows the cause of the fatal illness called the Spanish flu which became a global epidemic in 1918. What they knew was a dirty trench and the First World War made a hotbed for the expansion of the disease. After the war was over, armies on both sides were unmobilized. They returned to various countries all over the world. Many people go home with this highly contagious disease. As a result, about one-third of the world's population soon suffers. Unlike most plague diseases targeting young people and the elderly, this influenza virus attacks the healthiest young people. Those young people, including doctors, nurses, medical researchers, etc. are necessary people to fight the epidemic, but they themselves are sick. The entire medical professional is exhausted by the war. Today I was vaccinated against influenza. At that time, the vaccine did not exist.

One reason for the change in behavior of young women is that World War I ended in November 1918. Like the Spanish influenza epidemic that struck in 1918, the deaths of many young people in the war killed 20 million to 40 million people, inspired by a young man who felt that life could be ended anytime with short lives It was done. Therefore, a young woman wants to enjoy life and freedom seeking youth instead of just waiting for men to stay married at home. Political change is another reason for baffle culture. World War I narrowed the control of the class system on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean and encouraged to share and share free consciousness in different classes. On August 26, 1920, women eventually won the right to vote in the United States. Women want social equality of men and face the difficulty of achieving greater feminist goals: character, complete political participation, economic independence, and "gender rights"
