The 1918 flu pandemic (January 1918 - December 1920) was an unusually deadly Pandemic which infected 500 million people across the world, including remote Pacific islands and the Arctic, and killed 20 to 50 million of them-1 to 3 percent of the world's population at the time-making it one of the deadliest In human history far more died in the Spanish flue Pandemic that from the Black plague in Europe 500 years earlier.
