65 Camp Devens, Mass., Surgical Ward No 16 (Base Hospital) 9/29/1918 These men start with what appears to be an ordinary attack of LaGrippe or Influenza, and when brought to the hospital they very rapidly develop the most viscous type of Pneumonia that has ever been seen. Two hours after admission they have the Mahogany spots over the cheek bones, and a few hours later you can begin to see the cyanosis extending from their ears and spreading all over the face, until it is hard to distinguish the coloured men from the white. It is only a matter of a few hours then until death comes, and it is simply a struggle for air until they suffocate. It is horrible. One can stand it to see one, two or twenty men die, but to see these poor devils dropping like flies sort of gets on your nerves. We have been averaging about 100 deaths per day, and still keeping it up. There is no doubt in my mind that there is a new mixed infection here... they all mean but one thing here pneumonia and that means in about all cases death.

66 Presentation in chickens

67 What does 300M deaths mean? 250,000 deaths from the December 26, 2004 tsunami Imagine a tsunami of that scale EVERY HOUR for a six week period

68 Role of Antibiotic Resistance , 50% deaths due to 2 PN % mortality rate from 2 PN Will MRSA pneumonia, play a role in the next pandemic?
