De 1918
1847–1851: Cuarta y penúltima pandemia de gripe previa a la de 1918. (Volver a Cronología. Personas. Fuentes.)
The influenza pandemic of 1847–1851 nearly coincided with the next (third) cholera pandemic (1849–1855): this was the pandemic in which British epidemiologist John Snow (1813–1858) first characterized the epidemiology and waterborne transmission of cholera [3]. The 1847–1851 influenza pandemic was also the first to occur in an era of national vital statistics: the British disease registry, set up in 1836, was able to characterize the general epidemiological pattern of influenza mortality for the first time.
