What made the “Spanish Flu” so deadly?

202 viewsOther

So we’re all familiar with the Spanish Flu right? The disease that spread after world war 1 in 1918.

Unlike a normal seasonal flu, what made the Spanish Flu so dangerous and deadly, and why did so many young adults in their 20’s and 30’s die from Spanish Flu? I also heard the virus killed more people than both world wars combined.

How did Spanish Flu kill so many people?

I am curious if they call it the Spanish Flu in Spain since it probably didn’t really originate in Spain.
