Harriet Jane Lawrence was one of the first female pathologists in the U.S. In the early 1900s she worked in Portland, Oregon, where she hunted microbes and developed vaccines and serum therapies with the help of 200 guinea pigs that she kept in her garage. Her work on a vaccine during the 1918 influenza pandemic earned her presidential recognition and has had a lasting impact on medicine.

John Eicher (Penn State Altoona) joins the Infectious Historians to discuss his project on the 1918-1919 Influenza Pandemic that examines the pandemic from a translocal and comparative perspective. John begins by describing the broad contours of the pandemic and reflects upon the different approaches scholars have adopted in telling the story of the pandemic so far. John's own project builds upon a digitized collection of over a thousand letters describing memories and stories from the influenza pandemic, offering him a unique understanding of what the pandemic did in a variety of locales. Throughout the interview John shares some of the stories that appear in the letters, and jumps between trying to think about the pandemic as a whole and focusing on the individual experience that the sources provide. Among the topics that are discussed in the interview are the features that appear (e.g. war) or do not appear (e.g. blame) in the letters, and attempts to compare different understandings of the pandemic - for example in the United States and in Europe. Near the end the conversation moves to a discussion of Rosenberg's understanding of an epidemic as well as a comparison to Covid. 

We're taking a journey back in time, guided by our special guest - John Grabowski from Case Western University! In this episode, John explores the devastating impact of the Influenza Pandemic on Cleveland, particularly on our own Calvary Cemetery.  Join us as we contemplate how our past continues to shape our present through personal histories, global pandemics, and the enduring impact it has on our lives.  Do you have a topic you'd like us to discuss?

We just went through our own pandemic. Sickness swept across the world affecting everyone in some way. But this isn't the first time we have experienced something like this. A very long time ago another sickness swept through the world, over and over, taking the lives of many that came across it. Today we are talking about the Influenza Pandemic.

As a follow up to the last episode, historian Esyllt Jones talks about how Covid19 compares to the 1918 Influenza Pandemic

Award-winning investigative and independent journalist, James Corbett at corbettreport.com, has been investigating the power structures of the world since 2007. He has seen the preparations of a biosecurity state taking place for more than a decade, and he is concerned about where the COVID-19 crisis is taking us. In this episode, he explains the origins and ideology of technocracy, influential international organisations, Agenda 2030, the World Economic Forum and how they are aiming for absolute control over the population. Corbett highlights that rather than being concerned about what “they are doing to us”, one should form alternate systems where one can be self-sufficient and prosper regardless of the technocratic prison state that is being formed.Links to sources (in mentioned order):• corbettreport.com: “Biosecurity“• corbettreport.com: Episode 086 - Medical Martial Law• corbettreport.com: “(2001) anthrax (attacks)”• Search: “Model State Emergency Health Powers Act“• WHO: International Health Regulations• Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC)• (Rapporter knuser troverdigheten til norske helsemyndigheter og WHO etter svineinfluensa-pandemien som aldri kom)• Wolfgang Wodarg• WHO Changed Definition of Influenza Pandemic ◦ 2008 definition ◦ 2009 definition• WHO contributors for 2020• corbettreport.com: COVID-911: From Homeland Security to Biosecurity• WHO: Biosecurity - An integrated approach to manage risk to human, animal and plant life and health• Search: “Freedom Convoy“• Agustin Carstens speaking at IMF live-streem ◦ “We don't know who's using a $100 bill today and we don't know who's using a 1,000 peso bill today.

Americans are tired of the pandemic. They are tired of changing government guidelines, of uncertain recommendations on mask wearing, of restrictions on gatherings, and more.

Surprise, surprise - Covid19 is not the only pandemic to have ever arrived in Winnipeg. The 1918 Influenza Pandemic had a major impact. Historian Esyllt Jones has studied the 1918 pandemic and shares her insights in this episode of Afterthought.

The influenza pandemic of 1918, which killed more than 50 million people around the globe, changed the course of world history — and architecture was not immune. Design and art historian Theodora Philcox, joins Blueprint to discuss how that pandemic was the death-knell of the dusty Victorian attic, how the post-pandemic world's preoccupation with hygiene informed modernism, the 20th century's dominant architectural style, and what changes may await architecture following our present pandemic (and yes, Le Corbusier's bidet makes a cameo).

Susan Kingsley Kent is the author of The Influenza Pandemic of 1918-1919: a brief history with documents. The 1918 Flu Pandemic is the only historical event we have that's remotely comparable to what's going on today during the COVID-19 crisis. Dr. Kent, a prolific author and professor at the University of Colorado gave us a truly global perspective on that moment in history and what elements of that story echo in today's.

Ep#065  Fed up with fad diets and fake wellness? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food and self care challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective.  She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life. For thousands of years, humans have lived in harmony with the sun and used its heat and light as medicine.  But the skin cancer awareness campaigns of the past several decades have been so successful that many people no longer appreciate all of the good things the sun can do for the mind and body—or the dangers of not getting enough sunlight. Long before the research explosion on Vitamin D, Dr. Richard Hobday, PhD, an internationally recognized researcher, writer  has been teaching and writing just how beneficial the sun truly is to our lives.   He explains how the sun acts as a natural disinfectant, killing viruses and bacteria outdoors as well as inside buildings and  how sunlight therapy has been used historically to prevent and treat serious health problems like tuberculosis and other infections in the years before antibiotics were developed.   He highlights the role of sunlight in regard to conditions like osteoporosis, rickets, psoriasis, heart disease, and several forms of cancer.  Dr. Hobday shares  how our modern artificially lit lifestyles can throw off our biological rhythms, create stress within the body, and lead to poor sleep as well as worsening eyesight, and weakened immunity.   His research findings on sunlight, immunity and infectious disease which goes back more than a decade ago are truly prescient.  Bottomline, Dr. Hobday makes a compelling case for why and how we should welcome the healing sun back into our lives, and perhaps more than ever before how humanity needs to prioritize our relationship with nature for lasting health and  vitality.

Alina and Alisha discuss the Influenza Pandemic of 1918, and how societies and people reacted to the pandemic!

Third time's the charm, and we're diving into Emma Donoghue's 'The Pull of the Stars', a fictional story that takes place in an infected maternity ward during the 1918 Influenza Pandemic in Ireland, spanning 3 fast-paced days. Themes include living during a pandemic, science vs. superstition, sexual education, feminism/women's rights, religion, and more!

To discuss echoes and lessons from the pandemic a century ago that can inform our present situation, Myles is joined by Dr Ida Milne.

In this Stool Pigeon Saturday, Anthony and Skye interview Idaho State Historian HannaLore Hein who discusses Idaho's Response to the 1918 Influenza Pandemic and shares a message of hope and the importance of having historians at the table during trying times.

The history of the 1918 Influenza Pandemic is rarely cited in the media or commented on by politicians, but when it is, it's often innaccurate. I break down a recent Fox News article step by step to expose the misinformation and misrepresentation of the facts.

It's not a stretch to say that the coronavirus pandemic is an historic event, but it's not without precedent. Epidemics have been a part of human history for as long as people have gathered together. So it's not uncommon to look back in order to plot a path forward. On this episode of This Is Why, we look back at how pandemic influenza affected a western Canadian city in 1918.

Guy Beiner (Ben-Gurion University of the Negev) talks to Merle and Lee about his work on the memory and forgetting of the 1918 Influenza Pandemic. Guy first provides background about the impact of the Influenza Pandemic and offers an introduction to memory studies and social forgetting while pointing to problems with concepts such as collective memory. During the discussion Guy examines how historical events are remembered, then surveys the different ways academics and the public have discussed the 1918 Influenza in the past century. He highlights key moments that increased attention to the topic, such as the publication of Alfred Crosby's book on the topic or the 1968 “Hong Kong Flu”. Finally, Guy reflects upon the most recent wave of attention to the 1918 pandemic during the present-day Covid pandemic.

It's a virtual journey to the village of Crookstown this week on 'Where the road takes me', as John Greene goes to meet members of the local Social Club.Having had to cancel the majority of their planned events during the year, the club decided to diversify and produce a valuable social history of the village and surrounding areas. The end result is a book entitled 'The way we were'On the programme this week we meet historian and author Michael Galvin who outlines the course of the Influenza Pandemic of 1918-1919, which claimed 20,000 lives in Ireland.We hear about Poulanargid Harrier Club whose first outings one hundred years ago were in earshot of the Kilmichael Ambush.And.......... In Aherla, we speak to hurley maker and repairer Ted O'Mahony who also played minor, junior and senior hurling with Cork.The way we were, is the way we'll be, on Where the road takes me, this Sunday evening at 7 on C103.

One of the things that you hear a lot lately is that things are unprecedented. To evaluate whether that is true or not, we need to compare the present to what has happened in the past. In this episode, we look at the 1918 Influenza Pandemic and what we can learn from it to determine what is and perhaps what isn't unprecedented with COVID-19.

This year's holiday season will be like no other since the 1918 Influenza Pandemic. Families have been instructed to avoid large gatherings, and as we move into December many celebrations will become virtual.

Six percent of quarantine rooms are now in use, as are five percent of isolation rooms.*The Albemarle Board of Supervisors has signaled they will defer a planned increase of the county’s property tax rate that had been anticipated for next fiscal year. Supervisors met with the Albemarle School Board in a joint virtual meeting to get an initial look at the budgetary picture. When the two bodies last met in November 2019, the world was a different place. Jeffrey Richardson is the Albemarle County Executive.“Today is the 225th day of our global pandemic and the associated national, state, and local level of emergencies. and national,” Richardson said. To give a sense of how fast the situation changed, the original title of the budget for the current fiscal year was Expanding Opportunity. The document had to be revised quickly to anticipate the economic shutdown that happened. That included a new name - Respond, Recover, Recalibrate. How well has the county done? “Looking at it today through a leadership lens of what we have learned, and what I would tell these two board today is that it is not back to business as usual,” Richardson said. “We have not recovered. We have not been able to recalibrate and part of that is due to the structural damage to our economy.”The discussion marked the first public presentation by Nelsie Birch, Albemarle’s new chief financial officer. She said Albemarle did not adopt a five-year capital improvement program this year because of the financial uncertainty. “There was a recommended budget that had to be dramatically shifted and changed and much of that was holding back on the operations side, and also pausing capital projects,” Birch said, adding that both boards have the opportunity to move some of those projects this year. These included the new $21.2 million high school center and a $20.4 million expansion of Crozet Elementary. Another decision in the near future will be how much of a increase of a salary increase teachers and school staff may receive next year. A planned increase did not move forward due to the pandemic-related budget changes. The School Board does not have taxing authority, so the Board of Supervisors has to consider that in its budget deliberations. The usual market studies used to help determine compensation are not ready yet. Birch said the pandemic gives Supervisor and the school board a chance to do things differently.“The bit of good news we have is that we don’t have to present a budget today, so as we continue to move forward and information comes available to us that helps to inform the decisions we need to make in 2022, that will help guide us to the new reality,” Birch said, adding both boards have time to make careful decisions. For more on this subject, read Katherine Knott and Allison Wrabel’s story in the Daily Progress. *The Albemarle Board of Supervisors has voted to make sure the Planning Commission reviews a controversial rezoning application before it comes back to them. Breezy Hill is a proposed 160-unit development near Glenmore that was recommended for denial by the Planning Commission in July. Developer Southern Development deferred a public hearing and vote by Supervisors in September and made some alterations of the project. It had been scheduled to come back to the Board in November. “I believe that this particular application carries such significance that it would be appropriate for it to go back through the Planning Commission before it came to the Board,” said Supervisor Donna Price, the Scottsville Magisterial District representative.Price acknowledged the delay will add costs to the project but she wanted the Board’s land use advisors to weigh in. Supervisor Ann Mallek of the White Hall District agreed. “I just think it’s helpful to the applicant that they take the time to explain whatever the substantial changes are which they are proposing so that they have a better chance of getting approval because racing in with the same old stuff isn’t going to get them anywhere,” Mallek said. *The pandemic we’re in now is a historical echo of the so-called Spanish Flu outbreak of a hundred years ago. This week, the Albemarle County Historical Society invited the author of a 2017 article in the Albemarle County History magazine called "The Influenza Pandemic of 1918-1919 in Albemarle County and Charlottesville.” Before recent emergency, there had been no scholarly research into what happened back then. “There was nothing written about what happened locally and there’s never been a book about what happened in Virginia,” said Addeane Caelleigh, a retired UVA School of Medicine curriculum developer, and former editor of Academic Medicine, the Journal of the Association of American Medical Colleges. Caelleigh said much of her research was based on reviewing hospital logs, something that may not be possible to future scholars due to privacy restrictions in place now. We’re still in the middle of this pandemic, but reviewing the one from a hundred years ago is useful. “The pandemic came in three waves and the first one was a relatively mild form, lasted about three days, it was quite debilitated, it was quite contagious but it did pass,” Calleigh said. “But right behind it came the virulent form and that’s what we think of with the high death count and case counts.” Caelleigh said 700,000 Americans died in the influenza pandemic. She estimated that meant around 400 deaths occurred in the Albemarle Charlottesville area.   The entire audio of the event is available on the Town Crier Productions SoundCloud page. *Today in meetings, the Places29-Rio Advisory Committee will convene at 6 p.m. They’ll get a briefing on the Albemarle Climate Action Plan. They’ll also get an update on the Rio29 form-based code, which seeks to incentivize multistory buildings in the area around the intersection of Rio and 29. Recall that the other day, the Albemarle Architectural Review Board saw details for a new look for the Rio Hill Shopping Center. NBC29 has a story on that meeting. (meeting info)The Regional Transit Partnership meets at 4 p.m. for a full meeting with updates on planning grants for area transit agencies, impacts of the pandemic on service, and a discussion of long term goals. Earlier this month, Charlottesville Area Transit director Garland Williams gave an update on some of that information to City Council. At 3 p.m. the director of the planned McIntire Botanical Garden will give an online talk on the status of the project at the Center. “The input phase of the garden design process is not complete and through reaching out to other organizations, we are hoping to gather more feedback to ensure the built garden will represent the hopes and dreams of the entire community,” reads the blurb for the free event. (info)At noon, the Central Virginia Regional Housing Partnership continues a speaker series on navigating affordable housing in the area. Today’s talk is on Successful Regional Housing Strategies & Policies and the guests are Executive Director of Partnership for Affordable Housing Elizabeth Hancock Greenfield and Director of Community Planning and Services Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments Paul DesJardin.

Dr. Jane Peterson and Noel Hincha discuss their archeological efforts to recreate life in Chicago's Bronzeville neighborhood. As a result of the Great Migration, the area became home to many Black Americans in the early twentieth century. COVID-19 interrupted their fieldwork but prompted them to pursue new methods and pay more attention to racial health disparities, especially in the context of the Influenza Pandemic of 1918–1919. Dr. Jane Peterson - Professor of Anthropology in Marquette's Department of Social and Cultural Sciences. Noel Hincha - A Spring 2020 Marquette University graduate with degrees in French & Anthropology working as a Field Technician for the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Cultural Resource Management Program and the Commonwealth Heritage Group.

In the fall of 1918, Erie County, like much of the world, was overcome by an H1N1 virus, commonly known as the Spanish Flu. Over 18 months between 1918 and 1919, the virus infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide, killing up to 50 million on its way to becoming one of the deadliest pandemics the world has ever known.

It is difficult to place the COVID-19 crisis in historical context. Comparisons have been made to the 1918 Influenza Pandemic, Swine Flu, SARS, and also the 1890 Pandemic. Yet, further research suggests that we should also be looking at the "Asian Flu" of 1957 and the "Hong Kong Flu" of 1968. By examining these relatively recent pandemics, we can compare the reaction of NZ and other countries to the present crisis says historian from the Victoria University of Wellington Dr Grant Morris.

In August of 1918, a horrific second wave of the Spanish Flu crashed across the world. In this episode, the third of a four-part series exploring hydroxychloroquine and COVID-19, I’ll explore this single moment in time, through the mysterious origins of the Spanish Flu and historiographical controversies, scientific missions to mass burial sites in remote Alaskan villages, the ill-fated journey of the HMS Mantua, debates about how to count victims of a pandemic, and the mystery behind Pfeiffer’s bacillus.

The Spanish Flu, also known as the 1918 pandemic, was a worldwide incident that amounted an estimated 17-50+ million deaths due to H1N1 influenza A virus–solidifying the event as one of the deadliest pandemics known to mankind. - The social adjustments and government action taken during the Spanish Flu eerily parallel events that have transpired during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, currently ongoing. Will we ever truly learn from history? - Can lessons from the past inform better future decisions? Why do people hoard toilet paper when in distress? - What say you?

Episode 2 of Generative Spirits explores what life was like for Northeast Ohio sisters during the 1918 Influenza Pandemic, including their response in healthcare and other ministries. We talk with Sr. Cynthia Glavac, OSU and Sr. Elizabeth Wood, SND, archivists from their congregations that tell a story through documents saved through the century.

Susan Kingsley Kent is the author of The Influenza Pandemic of 1918-1919: a brief history with documents. The 1918 Flu Pandemic is the only historical event we have that's remotely comparable to what's going on today during the COVID-19 crisis. Dr. Kent, a prolific author and professor at the University of Colorado gave us a truly global perspective on that moment in history and what elements of that story echo in today's.

During these corona times, we delve into a similar global situation the 1918 Influenza Pandemic AKA the Spanish Flu. What happened, why the title of “Spanish Flu” and how the world, specifically the US reacted to the outbreak.

We're social distancing, so this week, we're recording a mini-episode from home with returning guest Jenny Leazer-Ragolia. The theme this week is Pandemics, so we'll discuss (in brief) the Black Plague, the 1918 Influenza Pandemic, The San Francisco Plague, Vaccines, and more. Plus, Thunderdome, FMK, and La Chose Francaise Arbitraire. And we might even notice a little Jaws-esque trend regarding politicians, protecting the economy, and ignoring inevitable threats...

In this episode, we discuss Pittsburgh's reaction to the 1918 Influenza Pandemic that encapsulated the city by something only seen before in the medieval days of the Black Death! Many moves are being taken now by government, local sports teams and colleges but they are not unprecedented! We then tell tales from S. Trevor Hadley's book “Only In Pittsburgh” including a story from 1909 that drives fear into the heart of every yinzer – plummeting to your certain doom, backward while on the Incline.  We also share some unusual prophecies written in 1928 predicting “Pittsburgh of the Future”.   #ThatsItFortPitt See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.

On this Thanksgiving holiday weekend, I put together a show on two of the most important and interesting topics in medical history--the 1918 influenza pandemic and the yellow fever outbreak in the United States in the 18th and 19th centuries. These are older; however, very informative interviews. To discuss the 1918 influenza pandemic is historian and author of the book, The Great Influenza: The Story of the Deadliest Pandemic in History, John M. Barry. During the second half, writer and author, Bob Arnebeck joined me to discuss the history of yellow fever in the US in the late 18th century into the 19th century.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the 1918 influenza pandemic--history's worst epidemic which killed more people than World War I and World War II combined. Historian and author of the book, The Great Influenza: The Story of the Deadliest Pandemic in History, John M. Barry joined me to discuss several topics on the history of this unusually deadly influenza pandemic.
