History of Spanish FLU 1918

History is considered outdated and past events are no longer considered. In native

worship, this claim is accepted rather than taken seriously, but in fact, it should be the basis

of medical education. Medical research is based on the past, and before going into the future,

we must fully understand our present situation and our present situation. On the go, you need

to know the current situation, find a map, and plan your research. In addition, medical history

has been studied for centuries. New facts can reveal new areas of research and even re-

examine topics [ CITATION Joh87 \l 1033 ]

The Spanish flu in 1918 caused some 40 million deaths worldwide, making it one of

the most record-breaking catastrophic medical disasters in human history. The advent of

another death-equality pandemic has led to major advances in medicine and public policy,

and it continues. To cope with flu epidemic, it should be more noticed by general public and

effective international coordination is needed, which greatly increases the role and

importance of government-led interventions in preventing epidemics. As a result,

international organizations, governments, municipalities, industry, and even individuals can

play a role in planning and preparing for the next pandemic [ CITATION Ada12 \l 1033 ].

Yes, the awareness of history of Spanish flu in 1918 and deaths happened in this

epidemic will increase the vaccination rate. It’s already high in the U.S. Annual influenza

vaccination is the most effective way to prevent influenza and its complications, so the

American Committee on Immunization Practice (ACIP) has greatly expanded vaccination

recommendations over the past decade. Before 2010, there were only people over the age of

50, pregnant women, people with health conditions suffering from flu complications, health

care professionals (HCP) and children aged 6-17. Annual immunization to provide

emergency vaccines in future pandemic diseases must take into account different ages, viral

factors, and hosts [ CITATION Gle15 \l 1033 ].

The 1918 flu outbreak provided health care professionals with a range of courses to

control infection control and control efforts. The virus strain that caused the 1918 pandemic

affected tissues that pass through the respiratory tract and may make mutations easier to

spread in humans. According to researchers, scientists can analyze new pandemic virus

strains, a process that is more important than ever. The virus can spread to new places and

birds. Infection control measures, such as banning public meetings and promoting hand

washing, can help reduce infection levels and cause deaths during the 1918 pandemic, but

they can only be effective if immediate measures are taken [ CITATION Kir18 \l 1033 ]. Is

history in medical helped researcher to find influenza 1918?
