I know, I was down there when it happened. There were parts of cars strewn all over the place, bumpers, wheels, etc, but no actual cars on the road. Total apocalypse scene.

From the WHO:

WHO | Frequently asked questions on Ebola virus disease

The Flu virus of WW1 killed anywhere from 20-40 mill which is probably a conservative figure.

Good read: The Great Influenza by John Barry.
