I've heard the claim that one of the "common cold" corona viruses, HCoV-OC43, was actually a nasty former pandemic virus (the so-called "Russian Flu" of 1889-1890, which is estimated to have killed about 1 million people).

yeah, I read articles about this as well but since there are no samples we don't have evidence in favour or against that hypothesis.
