    Suppose the authorities said nothing..? Would we have noticed this at all or just assumed people had the flu?

    Hundreds of thousands of people die from flu each year around the world. Would the noticeable increase in deaths have simply been blamed on that? Economies would have continued as normal while researchers worked on vaccines in the background..?

    Are you glad we know? Or would ignorance have been bliss?!

    We’d all wonder why 25000 people had dropped dead from ‘the flu” over the space of a couple of months.
