See where it says "unprecendented"? It's not, and it shows how fast BS flies right past our faces.
Back in the wake of the 1917 Spanish Flu, the US military conducted two studies on "transmission of the flu virus". Spoiler alert: they could not infect anybody through any means.
But that was already known in the 1500's by the Italians. They had epidemics too, and studied their possible mechanisms. Of all the possible causative factors they looked at, they could find only one correlation: the activity level of the Sun. So they called it "influenza delle stelle", or "the influence of the stars".
Kevin Boyle has short videos with very cogent presentations of these facts.
