《夺走5000万人性命的大流感》

1918年流感大流行（1918 flu pandemic）是于1918年至1920年爆发的全球性H1N1甲型流感疫潮，造成全世界约5亿人感染，超过5千万人死亡，当时世界人口约17亿。Christopher Eccleston讲述当时的疫情以及官方的措施，并阐述如何应对未来可能的流行病爆发。
1918. As the Armistice bells rang out across the world to celebrate the end of World War One, a silent killer made its way home with the soldiers - Spanish Flu. 
This devastating global pandemic infected up to a third of the world’s population and killed more than 50 million people. Now, using compelling eyewitness testimony from doctors, soldiers, civilians and politicians, and aided by dramatic reconstructions, this one-off special brings to life the terrifying onslaught of the disease, the horror for those who lived through it, and the hope of the pioneering scientists who desperately sought for a cure. 
Co-produced with Wellcome, The Flu That Killed 50 Million uncovers new and previously unseen archive material, and, in telling the dramatic story of the Spanish Flu in 1918, provides insight into how we might prevent and respond to future outbreaks.
