1957 Asian Flu:
Starting in Hong Kong and spreading to China, then to America, and eventually to the entire world, the Asian flu of 1957 was one of the greatest nightmares of the 20th century.
As a result of the flu, which caused the deaths of more than 1.1 million people before a vaccine was found and it was brought under control, 116,000 people died in the U.S., and 14,000 in the UK.
1981 HIV – AIDS:
For the first time in world history, the HIV - AIDS virus, detected in 1981, destroys the immune system, leading to the death of the patient even with the slightest illness.
The disease, first observed in homosexual American groups, has led to the deaths of 35 million people since the first case, and a cure has not yet been found.
The coronavirus, first observed in January 2020 in the city of Wuhan, China, rapidly spread worldwide, leading to an international lockdown.
On March 13, 2020, Europe became the epicenter of the virus. On March 26, the highest increase in cases was observed in the U.S. The world was severely affected by this pandemic.
