It's from US, spreaded around the world by US military servicemen, the first known case was reported at a military base in Kansas in the United Stateson March 11, 1918.I actually watched your video it does not claim the Spanish flu originated in the US. You need to do better and I already shared with you a detailed research paper from LSE. The most likely origin of the Spanish Flu is Chinese migrant workers, may be they got their favorite bat/ pangolin / civet dishes in a 'to go' box before leaving home.
Why do you persist with the same youtube video? Are you so sure no one is going to watch it?
On 4 March 1918, company cook Albert Gitchell, from Haskell County, reported sick at Fort Riley, a US military facility that at the time was training American troops during World War I, making him the first recorded victim of the flu. Within days, 522 men at the camp had reported sick.
That's the ground fact, it was first found in US, and spreaded by US servicemen to Europe.
