 | | Like the 1918 virus, H5N1 is an avian virus (39), though a distantly related one. | | | The 1918 influenza virus: a killer comes into view. | | | Thus in 2006, 2 major descendant lineages of the 1918 H1N1 virus, as well as 2 additional reassortant lineages, persist naturally: a human epidemic/endemic H1N1 lineage, a porcine enzootic H1N1 lineage (so-called classic swine flu), and the reassorted human H3N2 virus lineage, which like the human H1N1 virus, has led to a porcine H3N2 lineage. |

| | Finally, as the 1918 virus isn't out there circulating (and, therefore, evolving) in nature, a "just in case" vaccine could be made. | | | Viruses of this serotype have been circulating for decades, so much of the population should have at least a partial immunity to the 1918 virus. | | | Therefore, they suspected it was an avian virus that had been adapting to mammals for awhile prior to the pandemic. |

| | The potential is still there for the catastrophe of 1918 to happen again." | | | By the fall of 1918 a strain of influenza seemingly no different from that of previous years suddenly turned so deadly, and engendered such a state of panic and chaos in communities across the globe, that many people believed the world was coming to an end. | | | These latest numbers are suggestive of the death tolls suffered by immunologically-isolated Alaskan villages in 1918, where, in some cases, half the population was lost to the disease. |
