On the Black Death of 1347Sure you've heard of the Black Death, the medieval epidemic called 'plague', which killed a large chunk of the European population. It's said that this disease spread through fleas, brought by rats.
But there is something off with this theory: It is known, that rats and other rodent have a rather short history on Iceland (late 18th century), which was also struck by the plague. On the other hand China did not suffer from the plague although it was connected to the Silk Road, which is said to be a source of this sickness.
Have you ever considered an alternate theory?
European and West Asian sources mention a bright comet, Negra, which happened to be seen right before the mysterious sickness appeared. However, neither Chinese nor Japanese sources mention a celestial body in said years, both of who have a detailed astronomic history.
So why was the plague of ~1350 not known in China, that had rats, but in Iceland, that did not have rats?
Which brings us back to the comet Negra: if you are not fond with the electric nature of the universe, it's time to learn something: Comets are highly negatively charged rocks with eliptic orbits around the Sun. They influence all bodies they pass on their stellar journey.
Maybe let's briefly look at the symptoms of the Black Death:
- fever
- buboes (swollen lymph nodes)
- black or purple spots on the skin
- vomiting
- chills
- headache
- fatigue
- respiratory issues
Does it already ring a bell? There is another phenomenon, which leads to the exact same symptoms: radiation sickness.
So let us bring the pieces together:
The Black Death wasn't some mysterious disease spread by fleas! It was acute radiation sickness (above 2Sv) caused indirectly by the comet Negra: during the fly-by it dropped radioactive material into Earths athmosphere, which spread over the next years among the Silk Road and Europe.
This explains why it could appear anywhere in the greater area and no treatment would help. It also explains the appearance on Iceland, which was not connected to mainland Europe and it explains why Asiatic regions stayed safe.
