THE PLAGUE OF THE SPANISH LADY: The Influenza Pandemic of 1918-1919 by Richard Collier, Atheneum Publishing, New York, 1974
Page 7:
"It began, undramatically, after a two-day incubation period, with a cough (yskä).
Next there was pain--behind the eyes, in the ears, in the lumbar (lanne) region.
Soon a drowsy (unelias) numbness (tunnottomuus) invaded the body, and fervor (polttava kuumuus) set in; often the
temperature soared to 104 degrees F (40 Celsiusta). The pulse was thready (?) and unstable;
the victim's tongue was thickly coated...every mortal fiber ached
indescribably--the throat, the head, the naso-pharynx.."
Page 35:
"But which disease? All over the world, doctors were noting symptoms so at
variance with the spring epidemic --and with any known form of influenza
--that it might have been an unknown sickness...that each time a man so
much as stirred on his pillow, serous fluid poured from his mouth and
nostrils...a burning pain above the diaphragm (pallea)...the frontal headache that recalled (muistutti) Typhoid fever (lavantauti)...painfully congested (tukkeutuneet) conjunctivae (sidekalvo; verhoaa luomien sisäpintaa, luomipohjukoita ja silmämunan etupintaa limbukseen rajoittuen)...coated tongues
with bright red tips...another maverick (itsenäinen, riippumaton) symptoms: what doctors term 'silent
lungs', an absence of breath so total he was convinced his stethoscope had
given out."
Page 37:
"...case after case of leucopenia--a kind of leukaemia in reverse, where
the white corpuscles of the blood are strangely reduced in numbers...lost
her sight (näkö) within six days...gangrene (kuolio) of the sexual organs...afflicted by
diarrhoea (ripuli) so intense he endured twenty movements a day....
Page 69:
"One moment she could see her face, mirrored opaquely in a bowl of water
that her mother held (she was having Epistaxis, nosebleed while in the
throes (kourissa) of the Spanish Flu). Next instant it had vanished, blotted (peittämä) from
view by the blood pouring from her mouth and nose....Dr. Hennewig arrived.
His verdict..."I have seen many such cases -- without the haemorrhage she
would not have recovered."
Page 69:
"Later, Germany's Public Health Administration was to report that in many
areas Epistaxis affected up to HALF of all influenza victims--often as much
as a pint (tilavuusmitta 0,473 litraa) of blood at a time."
Page 69:
"Major Charles Mix, of the Army Medical Corps, saw a greater significance.
Among doughboys at Camp Mills, New York, Mix noted interference with the
passage of blood from the heart's right ventricle to the lungs caused
enough damming back of venous blood 'to make possible nasal haemorrhage on
the slightest occasion'. Many were even then cyanotic (sinertävä), and some, despite
this haemorrhage (verenvuoto), developed pneumonia..."
Page 220-221:
"....why should the sickness affect so many organs of the body normally
untouched?...most often the disease resembled encephalitis (aivotulehdus), with the
patient lapsing into a coma...a dilation of the heart (sydämen laajentuminen) but even of fatty
degeneration...a cough so intense that it ruptured the muscles of a
soldier's rectum...retention (kerääntyminen) of urine...puffy faces and swollen ankles of
acute nephritis (munuaistulehdus)...the lungs were the organs most vitally affected...a
patient's face so contorted in death that even close friends couldn't
recognize him...and autopsy surgeons were encountering what one doctor
termed 'a pathological nightmare'; lungs up to six times their normal
weight, looking 'like melted red currant (viinimarja) jelly.'"

"In the open chest of a cadaver Welch saw the blue, swollen lungs of a
Spanish Influenza...Cause of death? That at least was clear: what in a
healthy man are the lightest parts of his body, the lungs, were in this
cadaver (ruumis) two sacks filled with a thin, bloody, frothy (vaahtoava) fluid.....The lungs of
those who died quickly, sometimes only 48 hours after the first ache and
cough, were such as he had never seen before...Their most conspicuous
feature was the enormous quantity of thin, bloody fluid. It oozed (tihkua) out of
their lungs sectioned for examination, and in the large air passages
leading to the throat it mixed with air in a bloody froth (vaahto). As rigor mortis
(kuolonkankeus) set in, the fluid often poured from the nose and stained (värjäsi) the body wrappings."

The course of disease during fall 1918 was often swift (nopea). Convalescence (toipumisaika) in survivors was protracted (pitkittynyt), with fatigue (väsymys), weakness, and depression frequently lasting for weeks. Symptoms presented suddenly: high-grade fever and rigors (vilunväreet), severe headache and myalgias (lihaskipu), cough (yskä), pharyngitis (nielutulehdus), coryza (nuha), and in some cases epistaxis (nenäverenvuoto). Some patients had mild illness and recuperated (toipua) without incident. Other patients were stricken quickly and severely, with symptoms and signs consistent with HEMORRHAGIC pneumonia, and died within days and sometimes hours. Autopsies revealed inflamed hemorrhagic lungs. Still other patients with more typical flu developed severe superinfection with bacterial pneumonia, resulting in death or a laborious recovery. Unusually lethal, Spanish flu was also distinct in killing what was typically the cohort least vulnerable to influenza, 20- to 40-year-olds.

"I want to be sure that people know my theory that a H5N1 pandemic strain sustaining human-to-human transmission might cause hemorrhagic symptoms in some has grounding in good science. Case history background of previous virulent pandemic strains can give us some insight into how a future pandemic strain might act, however, scientific data is also imperative to uphold my theory of hemorrhagic symptoms in an avian influenza human outbreak.
This resource does back up the history of hemorrhagic symptoms in the 1918 flu and also explains the mechanism for such symptoms.
It is not my intent to scare people about a possible coming outbreak. I simply look at all of the data on the subject and make personal judgement on what may or may not occur in the future should the virus become pandemic. It is my belief that people should have as much information as possible which would enable them to plan ahead. I think that there would be much more "fear" if people woke up and found themselves in the middle of an outbreak. If people have advance warning they will be better prepared to act. People who are aware of possibilities can spend time researching the data and arriving at their own conclusions.
Just as the cytokine reaction in SARS did cause hemorrhagic symptoms in some cases, virulent pandemic strains of influenza, like the Spanish Flu also cause the inflammatory cytokines in the lungs and the hemorrhagic pneumonia.
"These viruses were also more pathogenic, not simply because they were associated with increased levels of in vivo replication but also because they stimulated massive increases in the responses of inflammatory cytokines in the lungs of infected mice. The mice infected with HAsp-containing virus had increased recruitment of leukocytes to the sites of lung infection and had severe hemorrhage resembling the hemorrhagic pneumonia associated with human infections during the 1918-1919 pandemic."
