is the influenza virus a synthetic illness developed by the world's governments as a method for population control?
according to the WHO, influenza kills 250,000-500,000 people each year (http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs211/en/) which is a fairly high number. other strains like the spanish flu killed 50-100 million people in 1918 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2021692) so newer strains could be developed to further control populations. thoughts?

The flu kills the very old and frail. If it wasn't the flu it would be something else.

spanish flu didn't discriminate against the old and frail.

That's the troubling part. The thing with infectious disease is they tend to have a balance between being infectious and being severe.
Ebola for instance is actually pretty difficult to contract but can kill anyone.
Seasonal flu is easy to get, but only weak people have a chance of death.
Spanish flu was both easy to catch and easy to die from. It easily made its way into every city across the world.
Whether any of this shit was engineered or not, it tells us that in the future there could be true pandemics. Just think what a spanish flu could do today when transportation is 100x better than 1918.

exactly. quite an effective method for killing off hundreds of millions of people in a short amount of time and without responsibility.

I've been praying for this kind of situation for a while now.

the psychology of the situation would be rather fascinating such as like in albert camus' book 'the plague'. i recommend the film 'contagion' if you haven't seen it, portrays a situation like this quite accurately.
