Wasn't "cytokine storm" what made the second wave of Spanish Flu so deadly?
Interesting bit of trivia, the Spanish flu should rightly have been called
the Kansas flu as that is where it came from.

It apparently got the name "Spanish flu" because Spain was in not a belligerent
in in the "Great War" and did not censor news about the flu.
All of those involved in the war censored news of the flu because they didn't
want the other side to find out how sick the troops were and hence how weak
their militaries were as a result.
