Wk 1: SYNTHESIS- Pandemic of 1918


Task Description: For this week's reading task we have been doing synthesizing Information about the Pandemic of 1918. We had to write information from the book and read what we understand, then down below I have done new information about the pandemic of 1981. That was our work for the week and more will come soon.



My new understanding of the 1918 pandemic is that there was an outbreak of the influenza pandemic which was called the 1918 Pandemic. pandemic is an outbreak of disease across a country, a continent, or the world, but this one was influenza. It mostly affects younger and older people, but suddenly when a person has caught the influenza their immune system responds by creating antibodies so it can fight it back. The future of these viruses is to cause mutation in the human genome, Antibody is a protein that the body makes to defend itself against foreign substances. People would die just within twenty-four hours or even longer than a week, but as during this time all ages, even children had to help out with making food for the sick and making sure that they had lots of help.
