  • 1700 smallpox that wiped out entire Native American populations - originated from Fort Pitt.

  • 1918 flu that killed up to 100 million people - originated from Fort Riley.

  • 1976 swine flu that prompted 40 million to get vaccinated - originated from Fort Dix.

  • Anthrax that was sent to Senators after 9/11 - originated from Fort Detrick.

  • 2009 flu pandemic where in the same month 3 vials of H1N1 flu were found "missing" at can you guess it - Fort Detrick.

Did you know...in the 1950s the U.S. military air dropped 300,000 aedis mosquitoes, the same type that carry yellow fever, dengue, chikagungya and zika, on U.S. soil to see if they would survive and feed on humans? aka Operation Big Buzz.

Ft Detrick was first Detrick Air Field in the 1930s. How could they have released the flu in 1918?

Are you inadvertently confusing stories like this about them researching the original strain of the pandemic?

This can all be found on Wikipedia.
