and the arrival of a new Ebola outbreak hasn't slowed it down, but in
fact has made Ebola an additional weapon of war.
The things that make this possible are: (1) The difficulty in
transmitting Ebola, requiring close physical contact, and (2)
aggressive use of newly developed vaccines.
Neither of those things apply with Covid-19. It can be transmitted
through the air, and there are no vaccines.
With regard to the Spanish Flu ending WW I, note that Russia and
the Mideast were in a generational Recovery era, with no desire for
another war, and Europe and America were in a generational Unraveling
era, also with no desire for war.
Today, much of the world is in a generational Crisis era, and many
countries are actively planning for wars of revenge. Army generals
would have to have ways of isolating coronavirus infections, but that
would stop them from waging war. Also, coronavirus may become a
weapon of war, as some people believe has already happened for the
Chinese.
