The author places his considerations in the broad social and cultural context of kontemporary knowledge about flu, presents the theories on the origins of the pandemic and comments on the medical publications from the 1918-1920 period. Screening the press from the period, easily noticeable becomes the relatively low number (compared with the number of infections and deaths) of reports on the Spanish flu that failed to present the true scale of the danger. The image of reality presented in the press of that period was dminated by current politics, situation on the war fronts, social and economic challenges, food supplies to civilians and the ending of World War I. The common experience od death and illness due to warfare resulted in lack of dramatic reactions of the press.polinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSpanish Flu pandemicpandemics of infectious diseases in the 20th centurysocial and cultural history of infectious diseasesimage of Spanish Flu pandemic in Poznan presspandemia hiszpańskiej grypy w Polsce 1918-1920społeczna i kulturowa historia epidemiiobraz pandemii hiszpanki w prasie poznańskiejRozdział z książki
