The Black Death

• The disease is named the bubonic plague because of the large pustules (buboes) that would form on the skin of its victims (if a boil is a pimple on steroids, then a bubo is a boil on steroids, crack, and crystal meth).

Gross

The Black Death - Characteristics

• Buboes, extreme temperatures, hemorrhaging, & death

An Attempt to Avoid the Inevitable

• The doctors (or death-handlers) wore distinctive robes to try to avoid the anathema

• Large brimmed black hats to identify them• Thick, heavy, leather trench coat and

breeches to keep infected blood off • A bird-like gas mask that had glass eyelets

and a beak filled with aromatic herbs to ward of the miasmas (bad-air thought to carry plague)

Pretty sure this was the original “chickenhead”

The Results

• Over 35 million dead in Europe alone• Over 60 million in Asia• Caused a severe labor shortage, which

lead to a demand for available labor, providing much needed jobs for the impoverished and created an environment which allowed for a rise of the middle class.

• Economic prosperity and abundance of resources from death and untold misery

Only slightly better than a zombie apocalypse

A sick child’s rhyme

Ring around the rosy,Pockets full of posies,

Ashes to Ashes,We all fall down

People really are strange

A New Plague

• Not a question of if, but when!!• A new strain of influenza?– Bird flu– Swine flu– Platypus flu???• Btw, the Spanish Influenza killed more

soldiers in WWI than were killed by bullets, bombs, and bayonets…combined!

• A viral contagion?

C’mon…now you’re just making stuff up

Page 15: The Black Death The Bubonic Plague. The Black Death The Bubonic Plague (or Black Death) ravaged the European countryside beginning in the 14 th century.

A New Plague• And the Mack-Daddy of them all…

Ebola-Zaire• From central Africa (Congo)• 90% mortality rate• Kills in as little as 24 hours• Hemorrhagic fever– Chills, muscle aches, cramps– Blood fails to clot– Organs begin to shut down– Profuse bleeding through the pores– Sloughing off of soft tissues– Seizure– Death

Well, that doesn’t look too scary…uh, nevermind
