Nobody knows for certain where the Spanish Flu originated. The idea
of the virus having originated in Kansas was due to US military having
a base there where troops were trained to fight in Europe. But that is
a very weak theory, as most troops were transported by ship rather than
by air in those days.
Over half of the world's population lives in SE Asia, from India,
China, Indochina, Japan. On the other side of the ocean is the USA,
with California being the home of many Asians, especially Chinese
and others from SE Asia.
>I don't know where the Spanish flu originates but it was not Spain.
It was introduced in Spain by soldiers who fought in WWI. And/or by
those who cared for soldiers who were infected.

The novel coronavirus may have been latent for decades, with it
suddenly transforming into a pandemic no country could stop. It is
known that others had the virus before it was detected in Wuhan.
Could easily have originated in Laos. Or Vietnam. Or India. Or a
number of other places other than China.
As for the epoch times, do keep in mind the writers of that online
publication are very gifted, and could possibly be the best in the
entire universe. So please do give them credit.
