Various minor edits (e.g., punctuation, certain rephrasings, updating of links). Added some citation and clarification needed tags. Also removed the claim in the lead section that the 1918 pandemic was the result of a reassortment event between avian and human influenza viruses, as the cited source makes no such claim (it only talks about the 2009 pandemic).Tag: Visual edit

Added a list of the articles I've created. Updated the list of articles to which I've contributed. Clarified my COVID-19 vaccination status to reflect the evolution of immunization against the disease since 2021 (and, for the sake of transparency, included the dates of most recent inoculations and the specific names of vaccines for both influenza and COVID-19).Tag: Visual edit

Influenza B virus
Various minor edits. Also adjusted the description regarding the IBV situation "today" in the Discovery and development section to be more general as opposed to focusing on the United States and the 2022–2023 flu season in particular.Tag: Visual edit

Expanded his DOB and DOD; slight adjustments to structure and grammar; also added some citation needed tags. In particular I think one is necessary to establish the notability of the information added by the last editor, as I'm not sure how notable someone's unknown great-nephew going to university really is.Tag: Visual edit

Addressed citation needed tag. The citation for that spot was actually the same as for everything else currently in the History section, so each paragraph now just has the same one citation, until any new info is added. Also made some minor edits throughout.Tag: Visual edit

Spanish flu
→Transmission and mutation: Added a citation where recently recommended regarding the death of Joe Hall during the 1919 Stanley Cup Finals. I'm not sure how necessary this piece of trivia is considering "fatal cases" were by no means unique to the fall 1918 wave (and thus Hall's experience was by no means unique in spring 1919), but the citation is there now.Tag: Visual edit

Spanish flu
Variety of minor edits. Further adjusted the 'Fourth wave' section, moving some content elsewhere, adding slightly more detailed information on Mexico and Peru, and readjusting structure to more closely resemble that of the 'Third wave' section. Also renamed 'In fiction and other literature' to 'In literature and other media'.Tag: Visual edit

Spanish flu
Expanded the 'Third wave' section to outline the course of the pandemic around the world in 1919 as well as add slightly more detail on the Australian experience. Expanded the 'Fourth wave' section to describe the major outbreak in Japan; also removed the paragraph on the legislative response in the U.S. (which I previously added), as this seemed too particular for this general timeline. Finally, renamed and expanded the 'Post-pandemic' section to describe the fate of the virus post-1920.Tag: Visual edit

Added an Overview of the concept as well as some more examples; expanded on its History, focusing in particular on the development of the concept and the potential role of the process itself during the 2009 flu and COVID-19 pandemics.Tag: Visual edit
