I was in a graveyard in Wales in 1991. Burying my Mother’s ashes in the long held family plot. We walked around this ancient graveyard dating back to the 12th C.

I was in a graveyard in Wales in 1991. Burying my Mother’s ashes in the long held family plot. We walked around this ancient graveyard dating back to the 12th C. You could see names still from the 1700s on older headstones, but the graves go way way back. Many many young person graves from 1918. ‘Here lies Evan Hughes, died at 17 years 6 months July, 1918’. In the same plot would be ‘.....Brian Hughes....’ his little brother who died same month, same year, and was 14 years old at the time. And ‘Gwyneth Hughes’ their sister who died at 76 years of age in 1974. I said to an old guy who was cutting the grass ‘man, what a terrible flu! Look at that. Teen boys dying.’ The old man snorted the flu was nothing. He explained all these boys had been working the coal mines 12 hour days, six days a week, 52 weeks a year. He pointed out Gwyneth, the sister, didn’t die. He said ‘I knew Gwyneth well. I was good friends with Brian’. He said all the boys were wrecked from the coal mines. A simple cold going around would kill them. He had a bad leg and stayed out of the mines as a result. He said he had the flu and it was a typical flu. The young soldiers who died had all been gassed. But they also went to war, and were gassed, shocked, malnourished and came back similar to the coal miners. Depleted and with no resources to fight anything. We can’t discount how food was rationed, how sick people were, and separate that from the flu itself.
Great story and details here, and all true. Also there was the advent of massive electricity rollout just before and during the war, creating EM radiation. We can't underestimate the effects of EMR , including the upcoming transition to 5g and 6G boosting the radiation by enormous amounts, on the human body, which creates...flu-like symptoms
