EPIBEL. Twittering about Epidemics and Inequalities in Belgium from the Plague to COVID-19. A BELSPO BRAIN 2.0 project

[EPIBEL @EPIBEL1]

and in another session at #ESHD2022 EPIBEL's @jrdhns presented his research on inequalities in vulnerability to dysentery in 1794 Mechelen. This wartime epidemic was not limited to the poor households, but was more or less 'equal' in its impact

EPIBEL's Hilde Greefs presenting at #ESHD2022 with @TimRiswick. Interesting differences in vulnerability to smallpox in Amsterdam and Antwerp in the 19th century: Amsterdam limited presence but sudden peak in 1870-72, Antwerp more present, but without giant peak

Exciting to see @TimRiswick and Hilde Greefs presenting some of some of our recent comparative work on smallpox and social inequalities in Amsterdam and Antwerp💀

in the meanwhile: our visualisation of excess mortality in Belgium in 1918 and 1919. Clear spatial differences which need to be explored further...

It is out! Our first EPIBEL publication! The very first overview of the Spanish flu in Belgium: it only took 100 years to produce 😉https://t.co/LIv5nI4RMm

[EPIBEL @EPIBEL1]

Many questions remain about the Spanish Flu in Belgium. Epibel will address these in 2022.

[EPIBEL @EPIBEL1]

New book on the Spanish Flu in Ireland. Hopefully more syntheses on individual countries will follow, they are urgently needed...
