Ultimately, these Rockefeller Institute quacks killed 50 to 100 million people via bacterial lung infections from 1918 to 1919.

Not much has changed.

And it originated in the US, not Spain. The first case was in Camp Funston in Kansas City, a military base.

It's only called "The Spanish Flu" because Spain's press was actually reporting it, because they weren't involved in WW1, so their press wasn't as censored and controlled.

But in reality it has nothing to do with Spain other than that. Seems to be more of a US military invention, potentially. Or the virus just happened to mutate first in a military member. I think the former is more likely than the latter, but neither can be ruled out without additional evidence.

I'm really not looking forward to antibiotic resistant strains of these bacterial killers breaking out in the world, in the next couple of decades.
