Epidemic when did it happened in Samoa?
In 1918, an epidemic of influenza struck the island of Samoa, causing widespread devastation and resulting in the deaths of thousands of people. The epidemic was particularly severe in Samoa due to a combination of factors, including the island's isolated location, lack of medical infrastructure, and the fact that a large portion of the population had no immunity to the virus. The epidemic had a profound impact on Samoa, both socially and economically, and is considered to be one of the deadliest epidemics in the country's history.
