To quantify age-specific excess-mortality rates and transmissibility patterns for the 1918–20 influenza pandemic in Boyacá, Colombia, we reviewed archival mortality records. We identified a severe pandemic wave during October 1918–January1919 as

The native population collapse in 16th century Mexico was a demographic catastrophe with one of the highest death rates in history. Recently developed tree-ring evidence has allowed the levels of precipitation to be reconstructed for north central Me

Few studies have addressed the impact and dynamics of the 1918-1919 influenza pandemic in tropical and sub-tropical areas. To help cover this gap, we analyzed all death certificates issued from October 1913 to June 1921 in Florianopolis (Brazil), a s
