On May 30, 1918 in New York City, President *****'s grandfather, Frederick *****, passed away as an early victim of the 1918-1919 world wide, flu pandemic. (see wikipedia-Frederick *****, 1869-1918, age 49)
Here in 2020 with all the communications and medical care improved so much, this coronavirus Covid-19 will not be as wide spread and deadly as the 1918-flu pandemic, which also killed both my dad's 28 and 30-year old parents in Boston in December, 1918 at the worst stage of the pandemic.
