In the nineteenth episode of 5 Minute Disasters, we examine the Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918, one of the deadliest outbreaks in human history. In just five minutes, we explore how this devastating influenza virus spread rapidly across the globe during the final months of World War I, infecting a third of the world’s population and claiming an estimated 50 million lives. The episode looks at the unique characteristics of the virus, its disproportionate impact on young, healthy adults, and the social and medical challenges it presented. Join us as we uncover the legacy of this global catastrophe and its lessons for future pandemics.
