Syphilis, tuberculosis, cholera, leprosy, typhoid, Spanish flu. Better descriptions. Loved that the author included the story of St. Damien of Molokai, wasn’t expecting that.

So far she covered the Antonine, Bubonic, and Dancing Plagues plus Smallpox. Descriptions of how the diseases affects the body or the cunning of the pathogen isn’t as horrifying as in Rabid by Bill Wasik nor does it have a deeply scientific feel. It’s more about what society was going through while the epidemic was happening and, so far, clumsy attempts at treatment.

Very fun, though it really shouldn't be.
