[[While ulterior politic motives are possible and often likely, we have within living memory the reality of a deadly pandemic.]]
Go to old grave years and you will notice that a lot of children died during those years due to epidemics- one of which was the spanish flu-
[[This stuff is major league.]]
It certainly does have the potential to be- however, scientists have stated they could begin experimental vaccine within three months- but, by that time- many folks could potentially be suffering from the virus, and spreading it- and just because they will be experimenting with it does not mean it will be widely available-
Children died like flies during a series of diptheria pandemics that spread from city to city and then back again across America and Europe from the 1870s to the early 1900s.
In the early 1900s, for example, every one of my grandfather’s siblings died (3 of them) but he lived. His parents had 2 more children after that.
Diphtheria was especially deadly for children under the age of 10.
There was no treatment or cure until a serum was discovered in Berlin in 1894 by Dr. Emil von Behring. The same doctor then discovered a vaccine for the disease in 1913, effectively putting an end to it.
