In addition to the death of people, the influenza has brought various economic losses to the world, even incalculable.

In just over six months since the confirmed outbreak of the flu in March, at least tens of millions of people have been infected and millions have died, making it comparable to another world war.

And this flu is a fatal blow to the world's economy. Because of the flu, people are afraid to go out, and a large number of factories have closed down because they can't sell their goods.

The collapse of small and medium-sized enterprises has led to a continuous reduction in the production of goods, and the price of goods has risen wildly under the supply of short supply, and the people have become more and more unable to afford daily necessities.

As a result, the balanced economic system collapsed in an instant, and the economies of various countries experienced a Great Depression worse than the war, and countless people jumped off buildings because of bankruptcy, and even exceeded the number of people who died from the flu in a short period of time.

According to a report by a US media, the highest number of people jumping off buildings in the United States in a single day has exceeded 2,000, exceeding the 1,900 deaths due to flu that day.

The U.S. government urgently invested a batch of supplies to save the people, but the supplies were quickly snatched up by middle- and high-income earners, who could not grab much supplies at all, and would also get the flu because they went out to buy supplies.

The U.S. government has not tried to use the military to distribute supplies to the population, but the problem is that no one is willing to risk their lives to transport supplies to the population.

Americans are used to talking about freedom, and most of them are thinking about themselves at this time. Of the more than 100,000 U.S. troops, fewer than 10,000 are willing to take on the task of transporting supplies.

Because of the lack of supplies, all states in the United States are breaking out zero-dollar purchases. The low-income class, led by blacks, stole a large amount of goods in major shopping malls and department stores in the United States.

Although the U.S. government dispatched police to disperse the people, the scene was too chaotic and did not make much progress.

Even because an unnamed white policeman accidentally shot and killed a leading black man in a panic, leading to a more serious conflict between whites and blacks in the United States.

Although the conflict was eventually suppressed by the U.S. government, about a thousand blacks were shot, causing widespread outrage among black Americans.

It is to be expected that even if the U.S. government survives the flu, it will face a more serious conflict between white and black.

Blacks have forgotten that decades ago they were lowly estate slaves, and that there is already a huge black community that wants to fight for more rights in the United States.

October 1, 1918, White House, USA.

President Wilson, pale, was listening carefully to his briefing.

So far, at least 3 million people in the United States have contracted the flu and more than 700,000 have died, 10 times the number of deaths in the United States in World War I.

At present, some marchers and opposition parties in the United States have clamored for the impeachment of President Wilson, claiming that it was because of President Wilson's carelessness that caused the flu to occur all over the world.

"Ronnie, is there anything else you can do now?" President Wilson looked at his friend and confidant with a tired look on his face and asked.

"It's too hard to contain the flu right now, Mr. President. Perhaps the only way to avoid impeachment is to shift the blame for the flu onto other countries. Ronnie shook his head and said with a look of regret.

There are at least 3 million people infected with the flu in the United States, and there is no exact list of these 3 million people.

How else can the flu be curbed? You can't follow the Australasian approach and quarantine across the country.

Leaving aside whether this would have been effective or not, if President Wilson had indeed ordered this, the people would have erupted into even greater demonstrations against President Wilson's freedom to imprison them.

"Damn it!" President Wilson secretly cursed, and there was no longer the high-spirited appearance of the Paris Peace Conference. Gently rubbing his eyes, President Wilson asked, "Who can you throw the pot to?" Now that the whole world knows that the outbreak started in the United States, I'm afraid no one will believe what we say. ”

"Mr. President, have you forgotten that Australasia had announced the flu to the world months in advance of the second flu? Of course, we admire how seriously Australasian people take the flu, but when the flu has just broken out and there is no fatality, Australasian people know that the real deadly nature of the flu is not a little suspicious. Ronnie said with a little meaning.

"Huh?" President Wilson was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood Ronnie's intentions, and without the slightest hesitation, immediately ordered: "This matter will be handed over to you, Ronnie." I hope to see the news sooner to ease the pressure on the government. ”

Ronnie nodded, again without the slightest hesitation. As President Wilson's subordinate, his relationship with President Wilson was both prosperous and detrimental.

If President Wilson were to be impeached and removed from office, the rights he currently had would disappear in an instant.

Therefore, preserving President Wilson's position is the goal of all officials in President Wilson's current family.

Ronnie's actions were fast, and since October 4, some media in the United States have begun to report the news about the flu, claiming that Australasia is the culprit of the flu, because they are the only country that has prepared for the flu in advance, which also means that Australasia is likely to be the real culprit behind the flu.

Some news newspapers also exaggerated that Australasia had privately researched biological and chemical weapons, and that the flu was one of Australasia's biological and chemical weapons.

The reason why Australasia promised free treatment for the flu is that they have the corresponding antidote to this biological weapon to prevent the death of Australasian people in the flu.

President Wilson spent a lot of money on this occasion, and in just two days, hundreds of US media outlets published these reports.

The spearhead of the domestic march in the United States has also been directly reversed, from expressing dissatisfaction with the government and President Wilson to demanding that the government investigate the truth and give Australasia the punishment it deserves.

Seeing that the operation was very successful, President Wilson finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least for a short time, his position can be stabilized, as long as the supply of supplies and medical care in the country is ensured, and the impeachment of the opposition party is not a problem.

At this time, Europe and Australasia naturally learned about the reports and situations from the United States.

Arthur had already dealt with this, after all, no one could bear the responsibility of letting the flu rampant, which would not only cause anyone to lose their current status and reputation, but even directly become a sinner for all mankind, and be remembered by all mankind with an extremely negative reputation.

In the past, Arthur had reservations in the news, and now he is using it as a hole card to deal a fatal blow to the Americans and President Wilson.

On October 8, 1918, most of the media in Australasia and Europe published a story at the same time, which included a photograph of a leaked chemical plant in Kansas by the U.S. military blockade of Kansas.

Sadly, the situation in the photo happened exactly before March. It was also a little more than a month after the leak at the chemical plant that an outbreak of the flu broke out in the Kansas military camp, which in turn spread the flu around the world.

The report contained very little text, just a description of where and when the image took place, while hitting back at the United States with a striking headline: "Wilson, please give an explanation!" ”

This is good, this photo is completely a real hammer. In this era when photographic technology is not developed, there is no so-called PS technology.

This also means that 100% of the photographs are true, and it is highly likely that the flu virus came from a chemical plant in the United States.

All of a sudden, there was a place for the frustration of the European people and countries to be released by the flu, and there was a large-scale epidemic like no other in Europe, with the slogan of the march unified: "Sanctions against the United States!" ”

After the leak of the chemical plant, the flu broke out, and I thought with my toes that the chemical plant could not be disconnected.

And this report was transmitted back to the United States, and the US government simply did not have time to suppress it, because the world coalition led by the Entente was already condemning the United States.

The public condemnation of the World League has undoubtedly directly confirmed the guilt of the Americans. News reports may be wrong, but a world alliance of dozens of countries will not target you alone, right?

It is precisely after the voice of the World League that the sanctions demanded by the European people have become a declaration of war against the United States, and the demand for reparations from the United States has become the elimination of the scourge of the United States.

Although scientists in the United States also came forward in time to refute the rumors, saying that what was being studied at the chemical plant in Kansas had nothing to do with the flu, and the United States had no responsibility for the flu.

But Europeans, already carried away by anger, will not believe the claims of these American scientists.

Not long after the chemical plant was exposed, there was a flu outbreak in Kansas, and it was the soldiers who blocked the chemical plant at that time who first showed flu symptoms.

The speeches of these scientists do not deceive the European people, even the American people.

Only then did the American people know that the previous reports were all fake, and the responsibility for the flu was really on their side.

All of a sudden, a large number of Americans also took to the streets and began to denounce the government and President Wilson.

Under the alliance of Britain and France, public opinion gave the United States the final fatal blow.

The British laboratory in charge of researching drugs released a set of data to the European media, saying that the earliest strain of influenza was different from all viruses found in nature, and it may be a new type of artificially cultivated virus.

And that's not all, the French laboratory has also released a set of data, saying that it is impossible for virus strains in nature to change so frequently. The current strain of influenza has the greatest possibility of thousands of variations, which is the result of artificial breeding.

Although the spearhead is not directly pointed at the United States, there is no doubt that the biggest suspicion is the Kansas chemical plant in the United States.

The statements of these two laboratories also directly confirmed the suspicion that the United States used chemical plants to develop chemical weapons, and that the United States had become a street rat in Europe and was spurned by most European civilians.

You must know that the current deaths in European countries are not small, and the economic losses can only be described as immeasurable.

According to the death figures reported by various countries, the current largest number of deaths in this flu is Russia, with an incalculable number of infections and at least 800,000+ deaths.

This is also something that cannot be helped, after all, Russia is relatively backward among European countries in terms of medical conditions compared to Western and Central European countries.

In addition, there are a large number of low-income farmers in Russia, who have no good treatment for the flu and do not have enough money to treat it.

After Russia, the second highest number of deaths is in France, with at least 3 million infections and more than 400,000 deaths.

The figures in the UK are similar to those in France, which also have more than 3 million and around 400,000 deaths.

The next deaths were 370,000 in Austria-Hungary, 350,000 in Germany, 320,000 in Italy, 200,000 in Spain, 100,000 in Serbia, 80,000 in Romania, 50,000 in Belgium, 50,000 in Portugal and 50,000 in the Netherlands

All European countries have a number of deaths due to the flu, and neutral countries like Switzerland and the Netherlands have also lost at least tens of thousands of people because of the impact of the flu.

It is no exaggeration to say that the impact of this flu on the European population has been enormous. Unlike the last war, the impact of the flu on all countries is fair, and no country is immune.

And that's just the death toll in European countries themselves, and if you count the deaths in these colonial countries of Africa and Asia, it's an absolutely terrifying number.

However, the death of the colonies will not be taken seriously by the countries and will definitely not be reported. After all, the deaths in the colonies are at least in the millions, which will not only increase the panic among the people, but also increase the government's responsibility for the flu.

After all, hundreds of thousands of casualties are really different from millions of casualties, and the responsibilities are even more different.

The losses of the Americans this time are absolutely enormous, and it is absolutely not only European countries that are disgusted with the United States, but also the vast number of indigenous countries in Asia.

Although Arthur did not know much about the death toll in Asian countries, the situation in the Dutch East Indies was not so good.

When the flu spread to the Dutch East Indies, the Dutch East Indies became a chaotic situation. Even Arthur did not know the exact death toll in the Dutch East Indies, but conservatively estimated that it was at least 5 million.

With such huge casualties in the countries of Europe and the countries of the world, it is impossible not to find a bearer of sufficient weight.

Not to mention that the United States does have a huge responsibility at present, even if the United States does not have any responsibility, as long as the United States is splashed with dirty water, European countries will definitely push it.

Take this counterattack against the Americans as an example, Arthur only showed out the photos, and the rest were Britain and France leading the charge.

The result is also very smooth, this flu is officially named the American flu, and the European countries have thrown all the responsibility on the Americans, and the world alliance is already discussing how to sanction the United States.
