Španska groznica 1918–1920. Zapostavljena i zaboravljena epidemija u Srbiji
The Spanish flu pandemic, which ravaged the globe between 1918 and 1920, claimed approximately fifty million lives, peaking in the autumn of 1918. Occupied Serbia was not spared, with the epidemic intensifying following the breakthrough of the Salonika Front and coinciding with widespread liberation fervor. Despite its devastating toll, for years the pandemic received limited scholarly attention globally, and even less so within Serbian historiography. This paper examines both the broader narrative of the pandemic's development and impact and its neglect in both global and Serbian historiography.
