What Really Caused the 1918 Spanish Flu? A Forgotten Experiment Challenges Germ Theory For over a century, the 1918 “Spanish Flu” has been held up as one of the deadliest pandemics in modern history—allegedly caused by a virulent strain of the influenza virus that spread rapidly across the globe. But what if the entire narrative is wrong? What if the mass death attributed to this pandemic had little or nothing to do with a contagious virus?

One of the most astonishing revelations comes from a forgotten experiment conducted in 1919 by the U.S. Navy and Public Health Service. The results of this experiment, still largely ignored by mainstream medicine, call into question the very foundation of infectious disease theory as it relates to influenza—and perhaps viruses in general.
