H1N1 didn't exist in 1918, also, why would you somehow think that anything used as a treatment in 1918 would have anything over modern medicine?

I am a health care professional, but don't let that get in your way. The strain of flu virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic doesn't "exist" anymore. Not sure how it can be magically released "now". Time travel perhaps? Also? It's not very wise nor helpful to put these voodoo cures into possibly panicked people's minds at this point but hey!? What do YOU stand to lose?

Personally, if it gets bad in my local area I'm stocking up on white onions, garlic, turmeric, premium white tea, and ascorbic acid powder. Should be enough to knock out any virus.

Thieves Oil is simply Oil of Wild Oregano. Known natural antiviral.
During the "plague", legend has it thieves would wear a handkerchief over their face that was infused with oil of oregano. They'd move from house to house looting and stealing.
