Pittsburgh plague--1918: an oral history.
This article is an oral history that highlights the influenza epidemic of 1918 as it affected 26 people. General history depicts the broad sweep of the pandemic. The hope is to give a human face to the poignancy of individual experience. Significant progress has been made in nursing science in the treatment and prevention of influenza. The task of nursing practice remains to integrate new knowledge and to adapt it to the care of each person placed in one's care.
