Obviously not the same, *but* @Radiolab did just report that Woodrow Wilson prob had the Spanish flu in 1919 during WW1 peace talks, w the & #39;extremely common& #39; symptom of mental disorientation, just before caving on the Treaty of Versailles.

The British Prime Minister referred to Woodrow Wilson& #39;s paranoia and delusions from what was probably the Spanish flu, as a "nervous and spiritual breakdown," from which an aide said he& #39;d never fully recovered. https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/radiolab/articles/dispatches-1918">https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/...

Woodrow Wilson went back to negotiating the end of WW1 at the Paris Peace Conference as a different and weaker man after what was prob the Spanish flu, "giving in on this idea to go light on Germany," and then "Germany was pretty much eviscerated."
