You don’t need to apologise or make excuses for doing non true crime videos! They are all great and if people don’t like the history ones they can just come back next week. You keep doing you because it’s working, personally I enjoy videos where I feel like you are interested in the topic.
I wonder if the sweating sickness was a form of malaria. They say there was a lot of bogs and swamps in Tudor England. Which would have had malaria-carrying mosquitoes, of course they wouldn't have known about that.
I knew of a girl in college who had helped some friends, along with her fiancé, clean out an old barn. She and her fiancé ended up with Hantavirus and were both on ventilators for a few weeks and had to be put into medically induced comas. They both came very close to dying according to her. This was in the Midwest of the US.
I think that it was a hantsvirus. It might have hit young, healthy, affluent males disproportionately hard because they, unlike rural peasants, did not live in close proximity to domestic animals. They had not developed the immunity that people who lived in close contact with livestock had developed. Something about the lifestyle of the young and well-nourished made them more susceptible to the disease. My theory is that the disease may have been linked to the fur that, according to the sumptuary laws, only the upper class was allowed to wear.
Botulism is no joke! As a kid I saw a prized stallion die from it just overnight. The vet ruled it botulism poisoning on necropsy and he thought a mouse got bailed up with the hay
Hantavirus really seems like the best guess so far. I remember that outbreak in the United States when I was a kid and I became terrified of breathing air that had been in contact with rodent droppings, such as that sometimes found in our storage shed. Just call me King Henry the 8th Jr, as far as hypochondria goes.
In the United States any outbreaks were rodent to human, never human to human. The English Sweat doea appear to have been spread from person to person, something not associated with hantavirus.
@@jayrio8555 Well it could have been a strain of hantavirus that has died out by now, probably due to the very fact that it killed its victims (hosts) too quickly...
Loved this video, medical mysteries are my favourite. I just watched "attacked by something mysterious in the water - diagnosis unknown". Though Its not exactly a mystery since they find an explanation in the end. It's about fishermen who get confused and very sick with weird rashes after they come in contact with water. It's super interesting!
This was on This Podcast Will Kill You a couple of weeks ago! I was so happy when I saw this title too, I was so fascinated by this after their episode on it, can’t wait to hear Georgia’s historical/mystery angle on this story! These medical stories are amazing!
Never heard of the sweating sickness. I haven’t checked to see if you’ve done a video on the dancing plague or the sleeping sickness. Both of which I’ve seen videos/listened to podcasts of but am always up for more because I think they’re so interesting
And haven grown up during the troubles in Northern Ireland and still live here today, that fact blows my mind. So much of our culture would be different no matter what side of the divide you fall on. There being no divide being the biggest because everyone would be Catholic. No Orange Order so no marching or protests depending where you are.
Thank you Georgia for covering this mysterious topic. I am very interested in Tudor history and remember hearing about the sweating sickness briefly in a documentary a couple of years ago. However, there is very limited information about it. It is most relevant to the current environment of a pandemic. Your channel addresses such unique content and that is why I love it!
I would really love to see you cover the history surrounding the song "Aloha Oe". It was written in 1878, by Lili'uokalani, essentially the last Hawaiian Queen.
I remember watching a Forensic Files episode on Hantavirus in Four Corners. Blew my mind! I love these videos Georgia, I’m fascinated with epidemiology 🤓
Botulism also happens if you are preserving your own meat and it is done incorrectly. I’m unsure if that was going on during this time but I have to imagine during the winter they would need to stock up in some way. Just a thought! :)
But you cant 'catch' botulism, and it does not usually have a lot of sweating with it. Plus it would be a coincidence if everybody that did preserving all did it incorrectly! And it would only be the upper classes that did any preserving, the lower classes would not.
Hey Georgia! Just wanted to let you know how amazing and thorough this video is. The sweating sickness was something I have heard of but didnt know much about and I cannot believe how much informative your video was. You clearly put in 1038% in to every video of yours and I Hope you never stop doing your history videos!
OH GEORGIA YOU A DARLING YOU DID A VEDIO ON THE ENGLISH SWEATING THANK YOU SO MUCH I ASKED FOR IT. YOU COULD DO SOME ON CHILDHOOD THINGS LIKE CHICKEN POTS OR MEALS. MANY THANKS ONCE AGAIN LOVE YOU FOR EVER!!!!!
I’ve said this before, but I have to say it again. I seriously really love your history videos, super interesting and original! I hope you enjoy them just as much!
I thoroughly enjoy these videos! I do like the true crime but sometimes they're just very heavy to watch so I often find myself skipping them and heading straight to the history. ☺ Lots of love from the Midlands x
That was interesting! I’ve looked up sweating sickness before while watching The Tudors because I wondered what it was. Look forward to your vids! Well done!!
I just adore these historical mystery videos! Thank you so so much for your hard work, Georgia. Creators like you have really gotten me through lockdown. Love and hugs from Ireland 🇮🇪🍀 edit: also this lip colour is fab!
I read about this in a book about old sickness and something similar was reported in Picardy, France, from 1718 (when it was first reported) until 1918 (lastly reported in a soldier from Picardy) Overall, it sounds like a kind of "European Ebola"
Brilliant! I love tales of history. And I’ve never actually heard of this so even better. I’d love for you just to focus on history videos. I love your TC ones too but there are soooooo many TC channel’s and the majority of them just re-hash the same cases over and over again. Can you maybe cover an Australian historical story sometime soon? Thanxxxx!😘 PS: love that shade of red💄
I've suffered from a type of sweating sickness for many years. It's treated with quinine bisulphite, and the doctors have no idea why I have this. I can't help wondering if it's related in some way. The only clue was as a toddler I did get an illness called actinomycosis
Ooh I'd love to hear you cover the war of the roses (part of what inspired the game of thrones/a song of ice and fire series). Also I'd love to recommend 2 channels I think you'd enjoy. They got away with murder masterfully narrates and covers very vintage cases. And obsolete oddity also covers a lot of vintage and history. There are a lot of interesting topics!
I would love to see you cover a couple examples of the Illnesses (by women of course 🙄) that seemed real and affected many, but were later deemed by doctors to be “hysteria”. I know there was even a case in America not that long ago that the doctors claimed was purely “psychological”.. I tend to question that “diagnosis”, honestly. Not saying psychological issues can’t affect people’s mental health, but sometimes I think doctors put that label on things just because they can’t quite figure it out.
Just popping in bc I thought of you looking at all the protest in your Neck of the Woods over Sarah. I bet you are taking part bc that's who you are 😃 Stan!!!
you should talk about the elephant trial thing... i forgot what it was called. they did a medical test on a few subjects and it went horribly wrong, apparently one of them ended up looking like an elephant? i saw a documentary on it and it stuck with me. i gotta find the actual name
Please do a history episode on the disappearance of the princes in the tower!! Its linked to the wars of the Roses (people think Richard iii did it but I think he is innocent!)
So... what you're saying is... IT WAS RATS! Tisk, Georgia, shame on you as a fellow Caitlin fangirl for missing that opportunity. I was poised for it all the way through the last few minutes of the video. Don't worry, I added it myself in the end. 😄
Perhaps doing a medical mystery on the lobotomy or Rosemary Kennedy; or any of the WWII human experiments that were done, Angel of death who moved to Argentina; i believe he has a twin experiment. While they’re wildly unethical they must never be forgotten. The lives lost need to have their stories told.
I had a bad reaction to heat once - due to me being autistic and being sensitive to sweat and heat to the point of allergy symptoms just as to temperature in the opposite side as stimulus from the environment - and mom thought it could be Dengue. It wasn't, we never knew what caused it, as it had fever as a symptom. The sweat allergy is still a problem, just a problem to deal with. Could've been light cause of Dengue when I was 12 years old. About the sweating sickness, it probably is a weird virus, transmitted by any chance of getting it. Viruses are funny things.
I'm really skeptical of that idea that the demographics support hantavirus. Notably, even if you buy that the nobility are more affected due to more sweeping and dusting (despite probably having fewer rodents around), that can't explain the sex disparity or age disparity. Remember that the elderly and children are less affected, as are women. Just to wildly speculate here... Exposure to horses or their parasites could provide a transmission mechanism that fits the demographics pretty well. The wealthy have more access to horses, and adult men ride them more than women, children, and the elderly. A novel and now extinct viral encephalitis might actually be a good fit for the symptoms as well.
Love how diverse your content is!!! Always something interesting :')
Glad you enjoy it!
I guess it is kind of off topic but do anybody know a good site to stream new tv shows online?
@Zain Kendrick lately I have been using flixportal. You can find it on google =)
@Devin Kairo Yea, been using flixportal for years myself :)
@Devin Kairo Thanks, I went there and it seems to work :D I appreciate it !

Well, she just said in her presentation that people did know malaria then and that they recognized the sweat to be something different from that.
I knew of a girl in college who had helped some friends, along with her fiancé, clean out an old barn. She and her fiancé ended up with Hantavirus and were both on ventilators for a few weeks and had to be put into medically induced comas. They both came very close to dying according to her.

My theory is that the disease may have been linked to the fur that, according to the sumptuary laws, only the upper class was allowed to wear.
Well, obviously, after reading the title I have to watch now to find out if I have this disease.
hahahahah relatable
😁😂😅
🤣😂🤣😂
The best part of my day is when Georgia posts😭

Wait? And your last name is king for real? Maybe you really are related lol

Georgia, you're a brilliant storyteller. Your passion for history is inspiring and you teach me loads. Thanks for your wicked content!
Wow, thank you!
Another awesome medical history video! Absolutely love these, and and I’m a bit obsessed with Tudor England!
Same!
Love love love the medical history content, can’t wait to watch this one. Nice upload as always!
This was on This Podcast Will Kill You a couple of weeks ago! I was so happy when I saw this title too, I was so fascinated by this after their episode on it, can’t wait to hear Georgia’s historical/mystery angle on this story! These medical stories are amazing!
Sounds like a vector borne infection, from mosquitoes , fleas or ticks. Thank you, it’s so interesting!
Never heard of the sweating sickness. I haven’t checked to see if you’ve done a video on the dancing plague or the sleeping sickness. Both of which I’ve seen videos/listened to podcasts of but am always up for more because I think they’re so interesting
okay but if arthur didn't die then ireland might not have had the troubles

That’d be a great one!
I've had dengue, we get outbreaks every year here in the tropics. It's no joke!
Thank You So much for covering this topic, thanks to you i think i have finally pinpointed my symptoms of Hantavirus.
Thank you Georgia!

Great video as always ♥️
Hi Georgia, I love these videos! Can you do one encephalitis lethargica? It's so interesting and such a mystery.
I read about this in a book about old sickness and something similar was reported in Picardy, France, from 1718 (when it was first reported) until 1918 (lastly reported in a soldier from Picardy)
Overall, it sounds like a kind of "European Ebola"
what book was it? sounds interesting!
Love listening to you while I do my house work xx
OK I KNEW IT the menopause does kill 😂😂
I'm going through menopause, as we speak.
The only downside I have is massive weight gain. None of the sweats, or anything like that.
So true!
I absolutely love your history/disease videos, so interesting!! keep them coming
Such a "fun" video (as fun as one could be with this topic)! I love your style of videos :)
Oh this one will be super duper interesting! Love these types of videos. ✌🏻
Love your historical content!!!!!
Wow, this was really interesting! I love the videos that bring attention to relatively unknown historical events :)
Ooh I'm liking the new angle! Makes this video feel like a more personable documentary ☺️
Great video. The research must have been crazy.
Also, the beginning of England as a theocracy
The hantavirus is soooo interesting! Great video as always. I also love medical history topics!!
I loooooove your history videos! Thank you Georgia 🖤

I learned so much! Thank you, Georgia!
You should do a video on the history of the city POMPEII. The city buried under volcanic ash! I’ve always been interested in it!! PLEASE!
I am obsessed with Tudor England! Enjoyed this video! More videos on tudors!
I absolutely adore these! 🥰 Thank You! Learn something new everyday! 😉
Epidemiology is one of the most fascinating topics on the planet.
I am always happy to watch your mystery history videos.
Thanks for the video, ur great and I love ur channel much love from Boston
HI, Georgia! Please cover the case of the Santa Rosa hitchhiker murders.
I always wonder how these videos are done they are so perfect
Great video. I love history too especially Tudors
A good presentation as usual 👋 Georgia
I enjoyed this video! Thank you!

Loving the new set up! 💜💛💚
Thank you for covering this ! I first heard of it on this podcast will kill you and found it so interesting !!!
I know so much from your channel. Thank You, Georgia.

From googling it..the common guess is it was die to poor sanitation. Which was terrible in castles ECT.
I’m so much smarter in History because of you! ❤️
could you do a video about the tudors? :)
There's more than one already 😊
@@aleksandralempart8305 oh im sorry!!!! thanks, ill check it out
I love your history videos please do more x

Ooh I love this type of content ❤️❤️❤️
I love these history videos

the elephant man trial!! it happened in 2006 or 2007.
I’ve literally just finished watching the episode about this on the Tudors 😂

We liked it ......how about looking into. Separated twins....and the like
