TITLE: Die Spanische Grippe

More about it

AUTHOR: Wilfried Witte

DESCRIPTION: Gegen Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs 1918 grassierte eine weltweite tödliche Pandemie: die Spanische Grippe. Zwischen 20 und 100 Millionen Todesopfer soll sie gefordert haben. Verzweifelt versuchten die Menschen, die damals rätselhafte Krankheit mit Hausmitteln wie Rote Beete oder Gurgeln zu bekämpfen. Vergeblich, wie der Mediziner und Historiker Wilfried Witte in seinem Vortrag schildert.

Wilfried Witte ist Philosoph, Historiker und Mediziner und praktiziert als Oberarzt für Anästhesiologie am Charité-Universitätsklinikum Berlin. Seinen Vortrag 'Nur die Spanische Grippe? Grundzüge der Grippe-Geschichte im 20. Jahrhundert' hat er im Rahmen der Vortragsreihe '100 Jahre Spanische Grippe - Influenza 1918–2018' am 18. Oktober 2018 gehalten, die von der Hamburger Akademie der Wissenschaften veranstaltet wurde.

More Drama

Radio drama, old-time radio and historic broadcasts from the Internet Archive (its Old Time Radio collection with the Old Time Radio Researchers' sets, WWII Era Audio Recordings, the Pacifica Radio Archives, the Radio Haiti Archive, German radio plays and listeners' uploads), Wikimedia Commons (with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision's broadcasts) and the Library of Congress. Every episode plays from its archive, which this site does not copy; rights are as each archive states them. Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is. Horror, crime, war and westerns are for teenage and adult profiles, racist caricature for adults only, and children’s profiles hear what was made for children. More about these archives.
