👉 The Al-Fluid, also known as the Arab Flu or Asian Flu, was a highly contagious and lethal influenza pandemic that swept across the globe in 1918-1919. It was particularly devastating due to its high mortality rate, especially among young adults, and its rapid spread facilitated by the unprecedented movement of troops during World War I. The virus's unique ability to cause severe respiratory symptoms and its high transmissibility led to widespread panic, overwhelming healthcare systems, and resulting in an estimated 50 million deaths worldwide. The Al-Flu's impact was exacerbated by the lack of effective treatments and vaccines at the time, making it one of the most significant public health crises in history.
