Why did the 1918 outbreak of the Spanish flu cause so many deaths? The virus had combined with an even deadlier avian flu virus.

The United Nations could not distribute vaccines fast enough. The influenza virus was a strain to which people had no immunity. The World Health Organization had not yet been created.

Answer:

The influenza virus was a strain to which people had no immunity.

Explanation:

The 1918 influenza pandemic (known as Spanish flu) was a pandemic involving the H1N1 influenza virus. This was one of the deadliest natural disasters in human history, resulting in the death of three to five percent of the world's population.

The pandemic had a higher than expected mortality rate for young adults, and there is no consensus as to why this was the case. Some theories establish that the strain was particularly deadly, and that people had no immunity to it. Some others argue that due to the war, malnourishment, overcrowding and poor hygiene were common, leading to worse outcomes for the sick.

In what ways did louis xiv's approach to controlling the french nobility differ from that taken by cardinal richelieu?
pentagon [3]
<span>Let’s start with the Cardinal first. Richelieu was a talented statesman and politician, and as Chief Minister of the king (Louis XIII at that time) he consolidated royal power at the expense of the nobles, and made France a strong centralized state. The King Louis XIV, basically, followed the Cardinal’s footsteps and went further by housing most of them in the Versailles Palace. In addition, the king used entertaining, impressing, and domesticating them with extravagant luxury to keep a close eye and a heavy heel on the aristocracy.</span>
