What is the point of this article?

[edit]

Millions of people died of this flu and this article lists 82. I've never heard of most of the names. I've heard of the 29 survivors but that they caught flu is the least of their accomplishments. Not only are they a tiny minority of the millions who survived but there is no indication as to the severity the illness. I came here looking for real information such as numbers of victims broken down by Country, Date and maybe Age and Sex. I came away with no useful data whatsoever.

This article contributes nothing to knowledge and is a complete waste of space and Wikipedia resource. Unless anyone has a better suggestion I will recommend its deletion.OrewaTel (talk) 22:37, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
