He was known to have a terrible fear of the deadly disease and its consequences and this is hardly surprising as it touched so many areas of his life including his life as an actor at the Globe Theater. There were high mortality rates amongst Elizabethan children and this was true of the brothers and sisters of Shakespeare some of whom were struck down by the Bubonic plague (Black Death) Brothers and Sisters of Shakespeare In the Elizabethan era there was pestilence and repeated outbreaks of the Bubonic plague (Black Death) and these were not just confined to highly populated towns such as London. The country area and villages were not exempt from the disease either - there was no hiding place. Information regarding the handling of the Bubonic plague (Black Death), symptoms, medical treatment and cure used during the Elizabethan era are fully described below.

網上讀書室 / LibTalk No. 16 24 February 2004 http:// library.ust.hk/info/libtalk/ Plagues and the Bubonic Plague After the SARS outbreak last year, and with the current Bird Flu outbreak, we are more aware of epidemic diseases than ever before. Considering this, today’s LibTalk will point out two books and a video about how epidemic diseases (sometimes called plagues) have changed human history and culture. In particular, we will look at information on Bubonic Plague. Plagues and Peoples (RA649 .M3 1994) was written by William H. McNeil. In this remarkable work, (first published in 1976), he traces the dramatic effect different parasites and diseases have had on civilizations across the world. McNeill’s basic premise is that human populations, especially after the invention of agriculture, have balanced precariously under the burden of micro-parasites (insects, worms, bacteria, viruses, etc.) and macro-parasites (landlords, warlords, kings, priesthoods, etc.). If large numbers of people fall ill or die from the effects of micro-parasites, then the macro-parasites have less to feed on. This causes kin gdoms and empires to undergo enormous stress or fall apart.

The Gamer's Nook Main January 15, 2003 Bubonic plague stolen in Texas CNN.com - Search on for potentially deadly vials - Jan. 15, 2003 LUBBOCK, Texas (CNN) Federal officials are looking for at least 30 vials that may contain the plague and are missing from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. The FBI confirmed that some vials are missing, but a source said there is no clear proof that they contained bacteria that could cause bubonic or pneumonic plague. About 14 percent of plague cases in the United States are fatal. Officials don't believe "what is in those vials can be used as a weapon," CNN's Kelli Arena reported. Fun, fun, fun. They don't even know how many vials are missing, let alone how many had bubonic plague in them. Thanks to Brian for posting the link for this one. [Update] All is accounted for now. Carry on. TrackBack Comments Five (maybe six?) terrorists are on the loose so watch out, everyone! Oh, nevermind. Thirty vials of bubonic turned up missing; everybody go on alert! Nevermind. Hmmmmm.

Table of contents 1 Infection 2 Symptoms and treatment 3 Historic outbreaks 4 Contemporary cases Infection The disease is caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis and is usually transmitted by the bite of fleas from an infected host, often a rat . The bacteria are transferred from the blood of infected rats to the Rat Flea ( Xenopsylla cheopsis ). The bacillus multiplies in the stomach of the flea, blocking it. When the flea next bites a mammal , the consumed blood is regurgitated along with the bacillus into the bloodstream of the bitten animal. Any serious outbreak of plague is started by other disease outbreaks in the rodent population. During these outbreaks, infected fleas that have lost their normal hosts seek other sources of blood. Symptoms and treatment The disease becomes evident 2-6 days after infection. Initial symptoms are chills, fever, headaches, and the formation of buboes. The buboes are formed by the infection of the

Biological Warfare > Bubonic Plague Genome is `Unusually Fluid` Bubonic Plague Genome is `Unusually Fluid` Bubonic plague, the bacterium blamed for the Black Death of medieval Europe and now a potential biological weapon, has had its entire genome sequenced. The genes seem to be "unusually fluid", readily re-arranging themselves and picking up new genes from other microbes. That could mean that more virulent strains of plague might emerge. More ominously, it suggests that enhanced strains might be relatively easy to develop as weapons. The bacillus that causes bubonic plague, Yersinia pestis, commonly infects rodents in Asia, Africa and the Americas. But it occasionally spreads to humans, with lethal effect. It does so by infecting both insects and mammals. Fleas that feed on infected rodents swallow the bacteria, which infect and block their midguts. The starving fleas feed voraciously, but only regurgitate the blood they try to swallow - along with the bacteria. So plague spreads among rodents, often causing only mild disease. If the infected flea bites a human, however, up to half the victims die, unless treated with antibiotics. If the bacteria invade the lungs of such patients, and they cough them out, nearby people may catch "pneumonic" plague. This is always fatal without treatment.

John Tull left Beth Israel Medical Center at about 7 a.m., hospital spokesman Mike Quane said. Tull was admitted to Beth Israel on November 5. Tull, whose feet were amputated due to extensive tissue damage, will begin physical therapy in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Quane said. Disease investigators believe Tull and his wife, Lucinda Marker, contracted plague from infected fleas on their Santa Fe, New Mexico, ranch. They became ill after arriving in New York on November 1 for vacation. Marker was released after less than two weeks in the hospital. On a Web site she established to update friends on her husband's progress, Marker posted an update Sunday that described three months filled with "very late night conversations with doctors, sleepless nights, tears of great relief and of sadness." "Love to all and we shall return to this fine city soon," Marker wrote. "Thank you for taking care of us."

Texas Tech University researcher Thomas C. Butler, 61, remained free on bond and will no longer be required to wear an electronic monitoring device while he awaits trial. Butler, who is internationally renowned for his plague research, had told the FBI that 30 vials of bubonic plague bacteria were missing from his laboratory, but then, according to court documents, he admitted he had accidentally destroyed them. After further investigation, he was charged with sneaking bacteria into the country, illegally transporting it to labs in Fort Collins, Colorado and Fort Detrick, Maryland, and shipping some samples to Tanzania. He was also accused of lying to federal agents and filing a false income tax return. Butler who had about a dozen supporters in the gallery Friday, declined to comment as he left the federal court building. Under the relaxed restrictions, Butler will be allowed to travel to California to see his son graduate from Stanford University.

Thomas Butler's attorney, Floyd Holder, told the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal that the professor imported plague about 60 times over the past 30 years, but said his method of transporting the specimens was "absolutely safe." Holder said he believes federal authorities probably will file additional charges against Butler accusing him of failing to go through proper channels in importing live plague samples. Transporting such biological material requires permits and other documents.

Today, modern antibiotics are effective against plague, but if an infected person is not treated promptly, the disease is likely to cause illness or death.
