The Spanish Flu was the worst disaster to have occurred in modern history. It began to erupt in 1918 and spread to become an epidemic affecting communities. As it was also a time of war, the epidemic became a pandemic because of the travelling soldiers who unknowingly became the carriers of the deadly virus. 

The Spanish flu was the worst pandemic the world has ever seen next to the bubonic plague of 1346. About 500 million people were infected by it, and between 25 to 50 million lost their lives. It occurred toward the end of the First World War, which lasted between 1918 -1920. This book revisits the Spanish flu in a unique way, starting with a brief scientific explanation of the virus and then going deeper to explore its historical context. 

Coronavirus disease is caused by a virus that is part of a large family of viruses - coronaviruses (CoV). It has been known to cause common respiratory infections ranging from common diseases like the common cold to more critical illness such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). However, the coronavirus disease-causing virus (COVID-19) is a new strain of the coronaviruses that was discovered in 2019, which has never been previously identified in humans. 

Inspired by recent events, COVID-19 The Pandemic helps answer many questions about the outbreak that has affected our everyday lives. Drawing from his years of experience as a physician and a researcher, Dr. Bhagat investigates cutting-edge research and hundreds of scientific papers to compile the best, evidence-based information about the pandemic.

The enormous human and economic toll of the rapidly spreading COVID-19 disease offers a vivid reminder that infectious disease pandemics are one of the greatest existential threats to humanity. This book provides an accessible explanation of how viruses emerge to cause pandemics, how our immune system combats them, and how diagnostic tests, vaccines, and antiviral therapies work - concepts that are a foundation for our public health policies. 

The Spanish flu pandemic of 1918, the deadliest in history, infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide - about one-third of the planet’s population - and killed an estimated 20 million to 50 million victims, including some 675,000 Americans. The 1918 flu was first observed in Europe, the United States and parts of Asia before swiftly spreading around the world. It is dangerous to draw too many parallels between Coronavirus and the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic, that killed at least 50 million people around the world.
