Usporedba pandemijskog virusa A/H1N1/ iz 1918. godine s potencijalnim pandemijskim virusom A/H5N1/ iz 2005. godine
Jedna od tri velike pandemije 20. stoljeća je najveća epidemija svih vremena tzv. Španjolska gripa uzrokovana virusom tipa A/H1N1/, a 1918. godine usmrtila je oko 50 milijuna ljudi. Razlog tako velikog broja žrtava virusolozi nisu sa sigurnošću mogli odgonetnuti do u nazad par mjeseci. Na temelju za...
