My second cousin twice removed, Alice WOLOVITZ who is mentioned in Barry’s book about The Epidemic had Influenza with  Pneumococcic Meningitisas a contributory illness on her death certificate. (see below)

 

She was a nursing student in Philadelphia trying to treat patients

Subject: [JewishGen.org] 1918 Flu Death certificate

 

On the death certificates for the 1918 flu, what did they label as the cause? My grandmother had a brother who died at that time. I never saw the death certificate, only burial records.
What would they say was the cause, for these deaths?
