his death makes this flu epidemic hit home. No need to panic, but worrisome nontheless.

Agree. That the guy might have been over weight means little to the family. To try to pass off every death as somehow partially to blame on a secondary condition is rather sad as the death is just as devastating to loved ones. Besides, we likely don't have hard numbers as to what secondary conditions might have contributed to all the deaths in 1918. .......If you are sick from the flu - even those as healthy as a horse - will spend some days sick and some time recovering. Of course you are right - no need to panic - but keep washing your hands.
