Spanish Flu and Morale Laws - How to Hide a Deadly Pandemic - Spanish Flu vs Coronavirus


Listen Later

While we are currently dealing with Coronavirus, we take a deep look into the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918. Most specifically we look at how morale laws made it so that the news couldn't report on this extremely deadly flu, leading to the deaths of up to 100 million people. We also look at why it is mistakenly called Spanish Flu, how it started in America, and how it affected World War 1. We also compare it with what is happening right now with Covid-19.
