Текст Раскадровки

  • The plague infected Europe in October 1347, when 12 ships from the Black Sea landed at the docks in Sicilian port of Messina.
  • People gathered at the docks were met with a horrifying surprise: Most sailors aboard the ships were dead, and those still alive were ill and covered in black boils that poured blood and pus.
  • Sicilian authorities quickly ordered the fleet of “death ships” away from the harbor, but it was too late.
  • Send these ships away!
  • Right away sir!
  • The bacillus traveled from person to person through the air, and through the bite of infected fleas and rats. Both of these pests could be found almost everywhere in medieval Europe, but they were normally at home aboard ships, which is how the deadly plague made its way through one European port city after another.
  • More than 20 million people dead.
  • Over the next five years, the Black Death would kill more than 20 million people in Europe—almost one-third of the continent’s population
  • Many people fled the cities for the countryside, but even there they could not escape the disease: It affected people and all types of animals.
  • I'm fleeing from this monstrous place!
  • Physicians relied on untrustworthy techniques such as bloodletting and boil-lancing (practices that were dangerous as well as unsanitary)
  • Come get your blood lancing!
  • The Black Death epidemic had been over by the early 1350s, but the plague reappeared every few generations for centuries. Modern sanitation and public health practices have greatly mitigated the impact of the disease but have not eliminated it. While antibiotics are available to treat the Black Death, according to The World Health Organization, there are still 1,000 to 3,000 cases of plague every year.
  • Time for your black plague shot!
