The scourge of God. The history of the plague. Meteleva I.

You will learn how for thousands of years terrible pandemias changed the appearance of the earth, rudely intervened in the course of history. You will see how the “black death”, the plague, nicknamed the inexorable “scourge of God”, gathered a plentiful harvest, devastating the cities and entire countries. You will learn how humanity painfully, with huge victims, learned to treat infections, how scientists learned the real nature of contagious diseases. The centuries passed, and the “psychology of the plague city”, the city-ada, is alive in the depths of our genetic memory, and demonstrates its rotten essence even today. We must not forget about the danger in a world where more and more sophisticated weapons are made of deadly infections, and bold experiments sometimes get out of control. Sooner or later, some kind of infection will come to kill us. Not now, not now. But at any time. So it is better to be on the alert and remember the lessons of the past. They gave us a chance to survive? Let's give the same chance to our descendants.
