Estimates of mortality during the 1918–20 influenza pandemic range from 20 million to 100 million deaths [вилка впечатляет]. Mortality between countries varied enormously. A large part of this variation was related to wealth. Resource-poor countries, with weak health systems, pervasive undernutrition, and widespread poverty, had higher death rates. When 1918 mortality rates are modelled for the modern era, an epidemic of influenza with similar virulence and pathogenicity would cause around 62 million deaths, with younger age groups especially vulnerable. 96% of these deaths would occur in developing countries. The centenary of the 1918 influenza pandemic is a moment to pause and think carefully about the world's present capacity to respond to another worldwide epidemic. The conclusion will be troubling, even alarming.
А что известно про Россию? Знаю только, что Свердлов умер от гриппа, а был вторым в иерархии.
