Influenza viruses are among the most common causes of human respiratory infections [1], and among the most significant because they cause high morbidity and mortality. Influenza outbreaks have apparently occurred since at least the Middle Ages, if not since ancient times [2]. In the elderly, in...
The Rosenau Experiment (1918-1919) is one of the most fascinating and perplexing scientific investigations conducted during the Influenza Pandemic of 1918, a deadly outbreak that killed an estimated 50 million people worldwide. Led by Dr. Milton Joseph Rosenau and conducted by the U.S. Public He...
