@PorterWoodie @MweneChanga @rikoruss31 @jtLOL @bryanyang “Both contemporary epidemiological studies and lay histories of the pandemic have identified the first known outbreak of epidemic influenza as occurring at Camp Funston, now Ft. Riley, in Kansas. “

It’s not debunked; it’s Chinese origins are widely accepted, although there is no consensus as with so many of these events.
@COLRICHARDKEMP Separate researchers from multiple countries studied this for years to find the origin of the 1918 flu pandemic. They ALL concluded that it emerged from the US, in Kansas. Why would you tweet a debunked theory? https://t.co/ZJSuhuXuWS
@benm_d @thehistoryguy The 1919 Spanish Flu likely originated in Haskell County, Kansas. There is no evidence it originated in the UK, or anywhere else. https://t.co/J1cJSYgcuV https://t.co/39J5janBUF

But they called it "Spanish" flue because racism. Most European countries other than Great Britain were considered to be inhabited by dark people. They called them "wogs", the French "frogs". So we should totally be racists today!

@TGroyp @michaeljknowles A lot of theories say Kansas, on a pig farm. But a new theory cites China. This is an older article, but Barry, the author, wrote the go-to book on the Spanish Flu. https://t.co/Jb6WdRkIU2
@BlackBrettFavre @jamesdcos They don't always. One fairly strong hypothesis says the Spanish Flu originated on a farm in Kansas. They've been able to track it down to the county and the township. It ricocheted around the globe and mutated along the way.

Why the 'Spanish' Flu might more properly be called the Kansas or Funston 'flu – a fascinating research paper. ("The site of origin of the 1918 influenza pandemic and its public health implications", John M. Barry, 2004)
The Spanish flu of 1918 should have been named the Kansas flu, if we are naming viruses for their place of origin. It started in Haskell County in Jan 2018. This "Wuhan flu" thing is conspiratorial at best and racist at worst. https://t.co/J1eAmiNcNZ

The “Spanish Flu” of 1918 started at an army barracks in Kansas. It got the moniker of “Spanish Flu” because, at the time, Spain was the only country being transparent about their transmission/infection rates. No good deed, indeed. https://t.co/Qk5EgrSCn
