      Why didn't the Spanish Flu lockdowns cause unprecedented unemployment? This strikes me as a critically important question. We know why the economy of 1918 was more robust to, say, an electromagnetic pulse. Why was it more robust to a pandemic? Because we want that robustness.

      maybe because there was a simultaneous world war that required people's labor to fight, make supplies, etc.?

          Population density, size of cities and transportation speed, frequency and volume were also major factors of difference

          The flu incubated in the trenches of WW1 and exploded as the war was ending. It's true that the country and economy were on a war footing.

          If you want that level of robustness, you kind of need an actual shooting war where every American leaves politics behind and focuses on defeating some actual human enemy. Without such a focusing event, you have the kind of political posturing you see every day.

          There is a war on a virus now, and the government is busy paying off people to lose their jobs and businesses to slowly die, rather than mobilizing an effort to produce the goods we are running out of (ventilators, masks, lab reagents.)

          Also the world wasn’t as globalized so everything wasn’t a web of commerce that rises and falls together.
