More than 2,500 flu shots given in Logan County (Paris Express)
The symptoms of human influenza were clearly described by Hippocrates roughly 2400 years ago. Since then, the virus has caused numerous pandemics. Historical data on influenza are difficult to interpret, because the symptoms can be similar to those of other diseases, such as diphtheria, pneumonic plague, typhoid fever, dengue, or typhus.

In Rome over 8,000 people were killed, and several Spanish cities were almost wiped out.
