The same as what happened during the 1918, 1957, and 1968 flu seasons.

There should be a corollary of Godwin's Law to compare other diseases with the Spanish Flu.

The pain and suffering it caused is hard to imagine and should not be downplayed.

Covid, as bad as it is, is almost three orders of magnitude off in deadliness (thus far, per capita).
