It's worth watching this story about the Spanish Flu that's just been posted on HN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=d0AoRkmj9YM https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=d0AoRkmj9YM As I posted there, there are some uncanny parallels between what happened in 1918-1920 and now—a number of which you mention. I also note there's an image at 15:16 of three people wearing masks one of whom is also wearing a big sign which says "WEAR A MASK OR GO TO JAIL". It seems rather apt these days.
