Spain needs to protest the name for Spanish Influenza. It killed millions.
And it’s not like they were eating bats or anything.

Also, research suggests it originated in Kansas, not Spain


Mar 11, 2020, 12:39 AM

First seen in Haskell county Kansas.

It’s called the Spanish flu


Mar 11, 2020, 12:48 AM

Because Spain was the only European country reporting accurate numbers of infected since they weren’t involved in WW1. The countries at war were covering it up, giving the impression that Spain was more infected.

I'm calling it the Chinese Flu so everyone will remember


Mar 10, 2020, 10:42 PM

which Communist country unleashed it onto the world.

About half a decade ago, my job occasionally took me to that part of the world. Most people can't even begin to fathom just how filthy, corrupt and backwards most of China truly is.

It's pronounced "L Heff A" and it means "The Boss".


Re: I'm calling it the Chinese Flu so everyone will remember


Mar 11, 2020, 12:13 AM

I can believe it. I worked for a company 30 yrs ago that was selling China their first machine tools.
That business is no long in business after 150 yrs. Its a super Walmart now.

But you're a racist if you refer to it as Wuhun because Wahun is Chinese.
And gosh forbid we can't offend the ######!
