Title
The Great Influenza: The Story of the Deadliest Pandemic in History
Presenter
Alice Frazier, retired MD and Delaware County Historical Society volunteer
Summary
Dr. Frazier will give us the story of the 1918 influenza pandemic, better known as the Spanish Flu, one of the deadliest pandemics in human history. Included will be the pandemic's relationship to WWI, why it happened, and if it could happen again. Knowing that it has indeed happened again, we will be able to compare the two pandemics and explore how they might be avoided in the future.
