The last major pandemic – the ‘Spanish Flu’ – began during the last year of WW1 and spread throughout the world from soldiers returning home. Wallangarra was the site of a quarantine camp from 1918-1919. Border camps were established to keep all people entering the state in quarantine for a period of 7 days.
