DESCRIPTION:

Pandemic Day might go down in history as one of its eeriest coincidences. On March 11, 1918, the first cases of the Spanish Flu were reported in the United States when 107 soldiers at Fort Riley, Kansas, were diagnosed. The Spanish Flu would claim the lives of 500,000 US citizens and 22 million people worldwide.

Fast forward to March 11, 2020, when the novel Coronavirus, named COVID-19, was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. As of this writing (June 2021), the world is still amid this pandemic. Over 614,000 Americans have died, and globally, nearly 4,000,000. However, the global number is considered a vast underestimate, with experts estimating that the number is closer to 20 million. Nations, including India, Brazil, Syria, Yemen, Palestinian Territories, and others, lack the medical infrastructure, testing, and reporting mechanisms to track infections and deaths, particularly in rural communities, accurately.
