The 1918 flu pandemic, also known as Spanish flu or Spanish influenza, though it had no special connection to Spain, (January 1918 – December 1920) was an unusually deadly influenza pandemic, the first of the two pandemics involving H1N1 influenza virus. It infected 500 million people across the world, including remote Pacific islands and the Arctic, and killed 50 to 100 million of them—three to five percent of the world's population —making it one of the deadliest natural disasters in human history. - Wikipedia

Because the number of profiles could be very large do not add profiles to this category, instead add them to a category in this form:

It may be necessary to also add additional categories for each county and state. If you have questions or wish assistance please post a note in G2G.
