About this episode
In 1950, the U.S. military secretly released bacteria over San Francisco to study how a biological attack might spread through a major American city. Known as Operation Sea-Spray, the test exposed hundreds of thousands of civilians without their knowledge and became part of a larger Cold War pattern of covert experimentation, from subway dispersion tests to other secret research programs. In this episode, we examine the documented history, the illness cluster that followed, the machinery behind the biological warfare state, and the broader question it raises: when national security is used to justify secrecy, how often are ordinary people turned into unwitting participants — and what happens when the truth finally comes to light?
