It’s the study of the future

History is not the story of the past; it is the study of the future. A century ago, the world faced what was now known as the “Spanish Flu.” It was a pandemic which made its appearance in the spring of 1918 and killed more than 50 million people worldwide.  The President of the United States at that time, Woodrow Wilson, did not act fast enough to slow the spread of the disease and 675,000 Americans contracted the disease and died.  History has taught us that speed is needed to contain the coronavirus. Let us hope the American medical establishment does not repeat the mistakes of the past.
