    The coronavirus is dangerous but not more than the epidemics of the last century .                                         Even before the outbreak of the corona virus, many other deadly epidemics have spread to different countries in this century. But the epidemics that spread in the 20th century were far more dangerous, deadly and deadly than in the 21st century. Ebola (2013 to 2016) In December 2013, there was an outbreak of Ebola in West Africa in the form of a deadly fever. The disease has been rampant in many African countries for nearly two years, killing more than 11,300 people. Ebola first spread in 1976, but it did not become an epidemic at that time. Ebola had a low transmission from one person to another, but the death rate from the disease was 40%. The Ebola virus re-emerged in Congo in 2018, killing more than 2,200 people. Swine flu (2009 to 2010) In March 2009, a deadly swine flu pandemic broke out in Mexico and the United States. According to the World Health Organization, the epidemic killed about 18,500 people. However, swine flu has not been as dangerous as speculated. SARS (2002 to 2003) The deadly SARS epidemic broke out in November 2002 in China's Guangdong province. The disease killed 774 people, mostly in China and Hong Kong. The SARS epidemic also spread to about 30 countries and killed 9.5% of those infected. Bird flu (2003 to 2004) In 2003, a bird flu outbreak killed more than 400 people. Most of the deaths occurred in South Asia. The disease was spread from poultry farms in Hong Kong. The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared a health emergency in response to the outbreak, but the death toll has been limited. The deadly epidemics of the 20th century proved to be more dangerous than the 21st century and the number of deaths from them is much higher than in the present century. AIDS (since 1981) The deadly disease AIDS, which first broke out in 1981, has not yet been eradicated and is still spreading in many countries. The disease has killed more than 32 million people so far, according to the United Nations AIDS Program. Hong Kong Flu (1968 to 1970) The death toll from the disease was about one million, according to the US Centers for Disease Control. The majority of those who died from the disease, which spread in 1968, were children. The epidemic began in Hong Kong and spread from Asia to the United States. In 1969, the epidemic spread to Europe. Asian flu (1957 to 1958) The disease, which spread from China in February 1957, killed about 1.1 million people. Worldwide measures to prevent coronavirus Spanish flu (1918 to 1919) The disease, which spread during World War I, killed about 50 million people. The Spanish flu, which spread from September 1918 to April 1919, is also considered the deadliest disease in a short period of time due to high mortality. The death toll from the Spanish flu outbreak was five times higher than the total number killed in World War I. The epidemic first spread to the United States and then from Europe to other parts of the world
