An excellent presentation though dated by the time of this comment. My stepfather and his siblings were all raised in Calif. orphanages since both parents died in 1918 pandemic. As late as the 1970's little public information was available except for a 2 page entry in Encyclopedia Britannia. The total deaths may be underestimated since little data was available at that time from Africa and most of Asia.

I've been reading The Great Influenza, by John M Barry, and the Spanish Flu was way worse. Thanks for covering the topic.
