      @spiritedaway0tutu Рік тому +2

      @@Lenape_LadyIf it was any form of hemorrhagic fever, then your answer can actually be found within one not found in humans: epizootic hemorrhagic disease, or EHD, which currently has this symptom.
      Black tongues in humans and animals can also be the secondary effects of certain bacteria and a lack of oxygen in the blood, though that is an unlikely explanation.
      Since the currently predominant strain of paratyphoid fever can cause gastrointestinal and skin hemorrhage already, the idea of a version that can cause the type of oral discoloration and hemorrhage seen in EHD instead (or in conjunction) really isn’t out of the realm of possibility.

No, disease didn't do it, Carnegie and later the government did it due to it being like a mining town and the fall of trains for mass transportation to buses and trucks. People may know of it's sister town better, Yellow dog, owned by a teacher who wants to make it an active historical mining town like Bedford village is an historical active town for the colonial period. Though it did have a mass pandemic, and there is a marker for it's mass grave area that's for the 1918 influenza epidemic, which is now almost 101 years old. And yes those buried there got a Catholic burial, thanks to the priest at St John the evanglists who found out that no services were being held for the deceased and that they were being mass dumped by a wagon due to being immigrants who worked at the limestone mine who just recently came over and had no relatives to bury them.

    The epidemic involving the Wampanoags in Massachusetts happens shortly after English explorer Bartholomew Gosnold came to the area in 1602. He explored Cape Cod and the Elizabeth Islands and even settled on Cuttyhunk for a time. I find it highly probable that the epidemic that hit the Wampanoags was of European origin - and likely that it involved contact with the English settlers/explorers who visited the region prior to the Pilgrims (who landed in 1620).

If the age of the Earth is literal in the holy books, so too is the rest of it. How do you reconcile any of that bs with modern cosmology? Are all astronomers wrong? Does the universe move around our stationary Earth? Do satellites and rocket hit a solid wall when they try to fly away from the Earth? Does rain sometimes pass through the firmament causing global floods?

    I'm a little confused as the classification of Leptospirosis as a tropical disease. I'm a veterinarian in Canada and I vaccinate most dogs that I see for lepto. I also have a couple confirmed cases each year that we attempt to treat. I have colleagues further north that see many cases a year. There are different strains of the bacteria, but we have at least 4-6 strains that most definitely manage the cold. Dogs tend to be more at risk than people but it is zoonotic. I believe it's survival over winter is likely in dear and raccoons, the carrier species, as it is not very environmentally stable. Anyway seems strange to refer to it as tropical as I've always been taught it as pretty much endemic, at least from a veterinary perspective.

      Oh! I can actually answer this one. It’s because of the water.
      While Lepto is technically endemic everywhere, the severe pulmonary version that is considered clinically significant in humans is also considered an endemic disease with substantial human morbidity in tropical settings. High rainfall and humidity = high amounts of surface water, and Leptospirosis is transmitted to humans via surface waters contaminated with the urine of infected animals. Add that to bacteria’s habit to grow explosively in warm, moist areas, and you get Lepto being classified as tropical in the lens of human infections.
      While a handful of the dangerous human infections happen in rural and urban areas across the globe, the majority of them come from tropical populations or those that recently visited them.

    At 6:40 'plagues associated with times of unusual rainfall', together with the the fact of rodents/fleas being likely reservoirs of Yersinia pestis, suggests to me the following scenario: in heavy rains, rodents are likely to be flooded out of burrows and nests, and to seek warmer drier shelter - often in human habitations. There, some fleas may spread from their normal host to humans, carrying the disease. Also, rodents that drown may have surviving flea populations that hungrily jump to any available passing live mammal - such as domesticated animals, pets, or directly to humans.

Skin lesions rather than spots, yellowing caused by jaundice when it attacks the liver, mucocutanious leishmaniasis causes nose bleeds. It can survive in cold climates when in a person, and can be transmitted through bodily fluids or faces if eggs are present. Since they'd be using the river to dispose of waste, the entire river would be contaminated with eggs.

Since the Cold War was still on it was agreed that all samples would be spilt between the USA and USSR to be kept in one lab in their country.

    Just want to suggest that the cocoliztli may not have been introduced as suggested. I am no expert by any means but could this be a case of Alkaptonia?

      The tags on it drag across the algorithm . There are tags that are on a lot of stuff we are streaming, and watching that is similar... it pulls this up because of the similar tags regarding its content. Those matches put it into the pool of current content trending to randomly pop up....if you want to stop the recommended that is this sort of stuff, go choose videos that are with out similarities to what you've been watching. You don't have to watch them just choose and do it several rimes. Or just turn your recommended off....

    9:24 Lithuania is over 1800 km from Athens (as the crow flies).
    Somehow, I doubt that there was a great deal of trade going on between Ancient Greece and the Baltic region in the 5th century BCE.
    And any trade that did occur between the two would've involved a long string of middlemen along the length of the Dnjepr river, which would mean many people and towns along the Dnjepr river would've suffered the same disease as the Atheneans did.
    But apparently, there's no mention of that happening.

    Regarding Cocoliztli, I think it should have been noted that the language it comes from, Nahuatl, is the Aztec language, and also gave us words such as Tomato ("Tomatl", though ironically this was speffically tomatillos, they called Tomato's Xitomatl), Coyote ("Coyotl"), Ocelot ("Ocelotl", which wwas the word for Jaguar), and most words in Mexican Cuisuine like Tortilla, Tamale, Mole, Advocaco, Guacmole, Chili, etc. I think it also goes to show you how much the Spanish Conquest easily could have turned out differently: In history class, most lessons on it stop with the fall of the Aztec captial in 1521, but in reality there were hundreds of city-states and empires in the region that didn't cede to Spanish authority. Most of the region was not pacified until the late 1500's, nearly 60-80 years, with some parts never actually really being under Spanish control: The fact that it took that long despite the absolutely massive population losses due to the Smallpox and Cocoliztli outbreaks, and despite the fact that Spainish Conquistadors were being added by much larger armies from native states they allied with, goes to show that contrary to population perception, the conflict was very hard fought, and had the outbreaks not been as severe or Spain hadn't been able to ally with native city-states, they may have never conquered it.

      Except tortilla is a Spanish word, not aztec, the nahuatl word for tortilla is "tlaxcalli".

      Thanks for this comment! I love learning about new Nahuatl words; they have a similar sound as my tribe's language: "tl." (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiceless_dental_and_alveolar_lateral_fricatives#Dental_or_denti-alveolar) I wish more people pronounced it; it's a cool sound.
