During the Spanish flu, one third of the world population was infected. Contrary to its name, it didn't start in Spain and it wasn't a flu virus, but rather a severe bacterial pneumonia. The Rockefeller Institute conducted an experimental vaccine trial on soldiers, injecting them with a meningitis vaccine cultured in horses. These soldiers, along with the American population, were vaccinated due to fears of European diseases. The Rockefeller Institute and Dr. Frederick Gates were responsible for the distribution and mass vaccination program. Survivors became carriers, spreading the bacteria to others, including the non-vaccinated. Similar patterns can be seen today with COVID-19, where vaccinated individuals can still infect the non-vaccinated. The parallels between the past and present, such as disease origins and closed societies, are intriguing.
