?:abstract
  • When the troopships arrived in South Africa, the Cape Town authorities temporarily quarantined some of the troops Because they did not show any symptoms, the soldiers were demobilised, and five trains transported the men into the interior of subcontinent, in the process spreading the virus Besides those who succumbed to diseases, the ‘Spanish’ Flu led to a decline in birth rates, an increase in orphans and orphanages, destitution, emotional and psychological distress, religious awakenings and economic ruin The state responded through public health measures, sanitary house reforms – which mainly targeted the white section of the population – and social distance efforts that saw the separation of races with the establishment of African townships located far from white suburbs
