Abstract:
Résumé Les effets de l'épidémie d'influenza au Canada en 1918 et 1919 comportent de multiples facettes. Malgré les méthodes diverses mises de l'avant pour combattre la maladie, on n'avait pu découvrir une cure adéquate. Parce que la crise fut soudaine, on dût s'organiser en hâte, ce qui entraîna de la confusion et une certaine dose de manque d'information sur les responsabilités dévolues à chaque organisation. Certaines entreprises furent durement touchées; les compagnies d'assurance-vie, par exemple, durent non seulement travailler avec un personnel décimé par la maladie, mais encore vit le nombre de réclamations monter en flèche. Il est possible, par contre, que l'épidémie ait eu quelqu'effet positif sur le règlement de la guerre. Chose certaine, elle a forcé à une réorganisation complète des services de santé au Canada et dans d'autres pays.

Abstract:
Spanish flu in Sweden 1918–1919 – course and consequences Sweden, like many other countries, experienced the effects of the Spanish flu epidemic, which lasted from June 1918 to mid-1919. During this time, 37,000 inhabitants of Sweden died from this strain of influenza. The analysis undertaken relates to how the epidemic and its consequences were dealt with and what the development of the epidemic entailed for Swedish society. The main sources are statistical data showing both the scale of the incidence of this influenza variety and the demographic consequences. Daily press and memoirs were also used. The epidemic occurred in Sweden with varying intensity. It mainly affected people between 20 and 40 years of age. A significant number of victims were seen in the army, which posed a serious threat to state security. The Swedish authorities were not prepared to deal with an influenza epidemic. But they quickly managed to organise temporary care for flu patients. While fighting the epidemic, a number of reforms were introduced (reorganisation of the health service, a new tax system, changes to the welfare system), which led to the creation of the Swedish welfare state model in the following decade. The epidemic also had a trickle-down effect on the democratisation of public life.

Abstract:
Abstract The year 2018 marked the 100th anniversary of the deadliest event in human history. In 1918–1919, pandemic influenza spread globally and caused an estimated 50–100 million deaths associated with unexpected clinical and epidemiological features. The descendants of the 1918 virus continue to circulate as annual epidemic viruses causing significant mortality each year. The 1918 influenza pandemic serves as a benchmark for the development of universal influenza vaccines. Challenges to producing a truly universal influenza vaccine include eliciting broad protection against antigenically different influenza viruses that can prevent or significantly downregulate viral replication and reduce morbidity by preventing development of viral and secondary bacterial pneumonia. Perhaps the most important goal of such vaccines is not to prevent influenza, but to prevent influenza deaths.

Abstract:
This paper examines how the British managed the 1918–1919 influenza epidemic in Lagos, the reactions of the local population to new sanitary and medical policies enforced during the period, and its social and political implications for future epidemic management in the colony. Unlike several studies which approach the history of the pandemic from global and national perspectives, a focus on Lagos, the colonial capital of Nigeria, one of Britain’s most important colonies provides this paper with a rare opportunity to engage with how local peculiarities informed decisions about the resolution of a global problem. Lagos is chosen as the terrain for discussion because of the ample data generated about it in the course of the 19th and 20th centuries (not just between European missionaries and the indigenous Lagosians, but also for other influential cultural and ethnic groups such as the Saro and Amaro (migrants from Brazil), and the Indian influence on medical policies in Lagos).

Research on the Spanish flu in Goiás aimed to understand the impacts and meanings which accounted for the population. We analyze its symptoms Spanish flu, as well as highlight the imprecision of medicine to define and characterize it, the multiple symptoms diagnosed and the variety of treatments and therapeutic measures. For this, the research is anchored in the records of the press Goiás, in the context of 1918/1919 were lodged with the population and called Advice to people: that is, they were indications of health authorities to combat the Spanish flu. More than a biological problem, the Spanish flu became a social problem, and as such has been analyzed here, from its social representation - ie, the disease constituted a problem that requires an explanation by the company attacked, it is imperative that has a social and cultural. Historicize diseases is one of the ways to understand a society.

Buscamos analisar a sintomatologia da doença de gripe espanhola, bem como ressaltar a imprecisão da medicina ao defini-la e caracterizá-la, os múltiplos sintomas diagnosticados e a variedade de tratamentos e medidas terapêuticas. Para tanto, a pesquisa ancorou-se nos registros da imprensa goiana, que, no contexto de 1918/1919, foram dirigidos à população e denominados Conselhos ao povo;ou seja, eram indicações das autoridades sanitárias para o combate da gripe espanhola. Mais que um problema biológico, a gripe espanhola se tornou um problema social, e como tal foi aqui analisada, a partir da sua representação social ou seja, a doença constituiu-se um problema que exige uma explicação pela sociedade atacada; é imperativo que tenha sentido social e cultural. Historicizar as doenças é um dos caminhos para se compreender uma sociedade.

Abstract:
In the winter of 1918-1919, a pandemic of influenza crossed the globe, killing as many as 50 million people. This dissertation is a local study of influenza in Winnipeg, Canada. It dissects the social responses to the disease from four different perspectives: that of the public health and medical authorities; middle class Anglo-Canadian women volunteers who provided nursing care and material relief to the city's poorer influenza victims; working class and immigrant families; and organized labour. The dissertation argues that the influenza epidemic, coming on the heels of the devastating Great War, and arriving in the midst of class, ethnic, and gender conflicts, played a role in deepening the social cleavages of Winnipeg society in the period, particularly those of class and ethnicity. Class and ethnic tension was not the inevitable outcome of the epidemic. Rather, it was the result of the social inequality of the disease's impact--working families represented a disproportionately high number of influenza's victims--and the failure of public authorities to mount a compassionate and cooperative community effort to fight the disease. The volunteerism of middle class Anglo-Canadian women, too, failed to build the bonds of community. Labour believed that the state response to influenza was a betrayal of principles of justice and public good. Workers' families bore the brunt of public closures and layoffs. A spirit of mutualism sustained families and neighbourhoods through the disease, and contributed to the mobilizing successes of the workers' movement in 1918-1919. The trauma of the epidemic suggested the fragility of the social order, and workers' capacity to build an alternative society. Their vision of social transformation included the creation of the "springs of health": a living wage, quality housing, and equal access to a democratic medical system. Many working families, nevertheless, found it difficult to recover from the loss of spouses and children. Their stories suggest that influenza had a long-term impact upon the evolution of post-war Canada that we are only just beginning to understand.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on the influenza virus. Even though the casualties, both military and civilian, were massive during World War I, deaths from the epidemic of influenza virus in 1918–1919 surpassed the war’s toll: some 40 to 50 million people died of influenza in less than a year. Although respiratory infection was a common companion of influenza during the 1918–1919 pandemic, pneumonia in young adults has been rare before and since. Over 80% of current and past deaths related to influenza have occurred in people over the age of 70, who most often die from secondary bacterial infections. Yet the risk is almost as great for patients of any age who suffer from chronic heart, lung, kidney, or liver disease; children with congenital abnormalities; or anyone undergoing transplant surgery or afflicted with AIDS. The last influenza pandemic recorded, the “swine flu” pandemic of 2009–2010, provided a scorecard of how far people have come in surveillance, epidemiology, vaccination, and treatments since the 1918–1919 pandemic and the four pandemics that followed.

Abstract The sudden appearance of the AIDS epidemic in our midst demonstrates once again that infectious diseases can still be important causes of illness and death. HIV (human immunodeficiency virus, the AIDS virus) has been front-page news for so long that it is hard to remember that it first came to our notice just overadecade ago. Influenza, oneofour most familiar viruses, still periodically causes massive epidemics (the most massive are called pandemics because the entire world is usually affected), and another influenza pandemic is virtually inevitable. There have been several influenza pandemics in this century alone, the most severe being the notorious pandemic of 1918-1919 that resulted inover 25 million deaths worldwide. Lyme disease, although bacterial rather than viral, is another infectious disease recently emerged to prominence in the United States. From such regular experiences, it is easy to get the justifiable impression that we are being inundated by infectious diseases.

Abstract:
Despite India losing between 12 and 20 million people to influenza in 1918–19, the highest mortality anywhere in the world, the epidemic has been remarkably neglected in recorded memories and historical narratives of the period. This great mortality and its subsequent remembrance were largely subsumed in, or overshadowed by, Indian participation in the First World War and official memorialisation of its casualties, actual or incipient famine across large parts of the subcontinent, the economic and administrative disruption caused by the war and a new phase of nationalist militancy against British rule, led by Mohandas Gandhi, centring on the Rowlatt Satyagraha and Amritsar massacre of April 1919. Unlike its vigorous interventionism against the plague epidemic of the 1890s, the colonial regime believed itself powerless to check the spread of influenza and adopted few preventive or remedial measures, and so had scant reason to celebrate its own role. That said, some Europeans and Indians did record or recall their deep sense of personal loss, the shock of witnessing mortality on such an unprecedented scale and the impact on their lives of India’s devastating ‘war fever’.

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: It is known that flu epidemics arise quite frequently, but there are no regular intervals between these events. Epidemics may differ in their consequences, but they often cause an increase in mortality in elderly people. The great flu epidemic of the last century claimed millions of human lives. Scientist Richard E. Shope, who investigated swine flu in 1920, suspected that the cause of the illness was a virus. As early as 1933, scientists at the National Institute for Medical Research in London isolated the virus for the first time. Thus, the present study seeks to understand how the influenza A virus emerged and was identified. METHOD: Approach used this is a literature review, where research was conducted through scientific articles, published in the MEDLINE and SciELO database, where 4 were selected because they fit the inclusion method. RESULTS and DISCUSSION: The viral etiology of influenza was proven in 1933, and the three serotypes that infect humans were only identified in 1950. In that same year, it became clear that the strain responsible for the 1918-1919 episode belonged to the variety particular antigen of subtype A. In 1957, with the emergence of subtype A, influenza reached China and, in 1968, in Hong Kong, subtype A appeared, causing a moderately severe pandemic. Even after almost a century after the recognition of this strain, the flu virus remains one of the greatest health control challenges due to its easy antigenic variability and contagiousness. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: For the formation of new subtypes, there is recombination, which corresponds to a mixture of, for example, genes from a virus that infects human beings with genes from viruses that infect other animals, such as birds, thus explaining how the retrovirus Influenza type A can become more aggressive due to mutations derived from the mixture of genes from animal viruses, especially birds and swine.
