Spread of Spanish Flu Was Never Experimentally Confirmed

=====================

Some Interesting Though Unsuccessful Attempts to Transmit Influenza Experimentally (1919)

=====================

If you put in the exact name of the article into Google, in quotes:
Experiments to determine mode of spread of influenza."
Similar with the author's name plus influenza.

You will likely find some reviews and many papers that do reference the study.

======================

Here is something to note.

No debunking by Snopes or anybody, afaik. That is one of their tricks .. omission.

======================

On the 1918 flu Richard Katz offers a NY Times article as counterpoint of possible transmission from sailors to populace.
I am including a letter from a friend of NSS, Richard Katz.

The Invisible Rainbow, by Arthur Firstenberg. .... Firstenberg cites a study in which the flu was not able to be transmitted experimentally to volunteers. (I verified that there was such a study.) That’s puzzling. But then look at thisNew York Times articleabout how the flu spread rapidly from sailors that landed in Philadelphia followed by a parade attended by 200,000 people.That sounds like transmission to me.The flu did not infect everyone who was exposed.That’s a historical fact.But that doesn’tmean there was no transmission.

It looks to me that Richard Katz is not one of wild debunkers like Frank Visser.
