The effects of a global war, a deadly disease, and difficult economic conditions. This is a summary of notes written by Lucy Cox describing the days she lived during the period when the Spanish flu swept the world.
Cox's descendants, who died in 1964 at the age of 84, still find hope in their grandmother's memoirs that lived in Ohio to overcome a virus pandemic crisis Corona, currently living in the world, according to a report published by NBC News website.
The Losey's memoirs describe events day by day, from 1899 to their death, including how people were then able to overcome the crisis of the Spanish flu pandemic, and how the days were going through with difficulty.
Her granddaughter Jennifer Weinbrecht (63 years old) She still holds notes that she inherited from her dead mother Joan Cox, saying she is learning a lot about the period in which she describes excerpts of what she was living during the spread of the Spanish flu, which killed about 50 million people around the world.
One
thing her grandmother wrote was that she was able to work on the farm
without wearing the stun under the dress that women were wearing in that
period.
Cox wrote about cooking and the difficulties people faced in providing food. How did her husband Henry absorb the saturated water in the corn after eating it.
On October 28, 1918, the memos indicate that they prepared bread and sugar cakes with manga fruit. She and her children went to the city in the evening after taking medicines to prevent them from taking flu infections.
Some of the measures taken in the Corona pandemic are similar to the Spanish flu crisis, as schools and churches were closed, and people depended on farming to provide food.
