Spanish Flu - U.S. Massive Infections

Time: Oct, 1918

Place: U.S.

Details: During October 1918, the pandemic killed an estimate of 195,000 Americans. That's because the United States had a severe shortage of professional nurses, due to the military deployment of large numbers of nurses in the war camps in and outside the country, and they failed to use trained African American nurses.
