the black plague lasted 4 years... how long is this s hit gonna last?
How did they try to stop the Black Plague?
Some of the cures they tried included: ... Rubbing onions, herbs or a chopped up snake (if available) on the boils or cutting up a pigeon and rubbing it over an infected body. Drinking vinegar, eating crushed minerals, arsenic, mercury or even ten-year-old treacle!
It lasted a lot longer. It ravaged Europe for decades, but the most famous one was about 4 years.
They didn't know anything about bacterial infections and praying doesn't help much against either. Gathering lots of people in churches made it even worse.
