What It Was Really Like To Live Through The ‘Spanish Flu’ Pandemic In 1918-1919 And How It Compares to Covid-19
The Pandemic affected social relations for a long time
The widespread pandemic became an eternal source of fear among the people. The number of dead and affected people made others think just about themselves. It was so frightening that people refrained from touching each other, eating with each other, and going out of the house. As there were no schools, churches, or offices, the flu affected relationships on all levels.
In short, the Spanish flu took away all the intimacy and love that existed among people and their loved ones. Similarly, due to COVID-19, today also people cannot meet and talk to each other face to face. Though technology has helped them do so virtually.
