Finnegan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMXQVaXCGhQ&t=443s In my recent book, The Sleeper Agent: The Rise of Lyme Disease, Chronic Illness, and the Great Imitator Antigens of Biological Warfare, I cover in the first two chapters, the early developments and uses of biological weapons from their primitive use in older times up to the days of World War I, and I put special emphasis on the devastation caused by the 1918 Influenza, erroneously called the “Spanish” Influenza, or “Spanish Flu” for short. It was only coined the “Spanish” flu because at the time of World War I when it began to spread, the United States had censored the press from reporting on it under severe penalties to prevent panic among the soldiers who were enlisted or about to be drafted into the military and sent to war. This was done not only in America but in many additional countries involved in the War effort.
