  • Once Upon a Time, 100 Years Ago in NAIC History…
    Once Upon a Time, 100 Years Ago in NAIC History… 1919: When world events and insurance collide 1919 was the end of the influenza pandemic, the most severe pandemic of any in recent history. Mortality was high in almost every age group, resulting in an estimated 50 million deaths worldwide. This, in turn, created heavy and unexpected burdens on life, accident and health insurance companies. A paper “The Effect of Influenza on Insurance” prepared by the Honorable Burton Mansfield, Insurance Commissioner of Connecticut and Thomas F. Tarbell, Actuary for the Connecticut Department, was presented during the Proceedings of the National Convention of Insurance Commissioners in September 1919. The Effect of Influenza on Insurance, 1919 NAIC Proceedings, pgs. 302-311 1 Tarbell’s report was also widely published and distributed in other insurance publications at the time, such as The Eastern Underwriter (Sept. 12, 1919) and The Spectator (Sept. 18, 1919). The Eastern Underwriter The Spectator The Effect of Influenza on Insurance: Report Background & Major Findings A circular letter was sent out to 32 life insurance companies doing business in the state of Connecticut to collect statistics on the effect of influenza upon mortality. Mr. Tarbell’s investigation was divided into three parts based on claims incurred during the same six periods dated October 1, 1915 – March 31, 1919: 1. The effect of influenza upon mortality and sickness 2. The effect of influenza upon the increase in new business 3. The effect of influenza upon premium rates 2 It was estimated that there was a 25% increase over the normal rate of mortality due to influenza, as respects to claims incurred up to December 31st, 1918.

The Impact of the 1918-1919 Influenza Epidemic on Virginia By Stephanie Forrest Barker Master of Arts in History, University of Richmond, 2002 R. Barry Westin, Thesis Director In the fall of 1918 an unparalleled influenza pandemic spread throughout the world. More than a quarter of Americans became ill, and at least 600,000 died. For many Virginians, this was a time of acute crisis that only could be compared to the days of the Civil War. This thesis describes Spanish influenza's impact on Virginia, primarily focusing on the cities of Newport News, Richmond, and Roanoke. It details influenza's emergence in Virginia and explores how state and city officials dealt with this unprecedented epidemic. This study examines how the epidemic disrupted daily routines of life and overwhelmed the state's medical community. This thesis briefly discusses the effect that the segregation of races had on the spread of influenza and the role that women played in battling the epidemic.

  • A Background Sketch of the Summer's Crisis
    Introduction: A Background Sketch of the Summer’s Crisis The trouble that was fermenting before the war, which broke upon a nation in which another crisis was rapidly germinating, is now coming fast to a head. A tremendous discontent possesses the soul of the people, and a violent passion to set things suddenly aright.1 ∵ With the acceptance of the first Sankey Report by the mfgb, the situation facing the government eased considerably, and Lloyd George was able to return to Paris to resume his place at the negotiating table. However, respite was temporary. By the beginning of July, he was back. The Sankey Commission had finished its investigation into nationalisation, and the country was once more entering a period of profound crisis. The crisis of the summer was composed of several elements. The optimism that had greeted Coalition promises of peace and reconstruction was rapidly dissipating. The transition from a war economy was proving difficult. Lloyd George privately admitted that a ‘burgeoning national debt, falling productiv- ity, loss of credit, and endemic strikes signalled Britain’s declining position’.2 Churchill’s support for the White armies in Russia was widely viewed as an act of base hypocrisy, undermining the idealistic rhetoric of the Versailles peace treaty. Liberals outside the government were outraged by the treaty itself. C.P. Scott, editor of the Manchester Guardian, told Lloyd George that whilst he had ‘not the least objection to Coalition in itself’, he objected strongly to such ‘surrenders of principle’ as had taken place at Versailles.3 Liberal concerns increased tensions within the Coalition, and there was a sense that the govern- ment might not last.
