Records and Recollections: the pneumonic influenza pandemic in Australia, 1918-1919

For the 2021 ANU Archives Annual Lecture, Dr Anthea Hyslop spoke about the pneumonic influenza pandemic in Australia, 1918-1919.

A recording of this event is now available online.

It was a fascinating and timely lecture; today’s experiences echoing those of the 20th century. The audience was very engaged with the topic and asked many interesting questions in the webinar chat. Written responses to these questions are available online.

Following the lecture, Dr Bruce Scates, Chair of the Friends of the Noel Butlin Archives Centre, gave a vote of thanks.
