Aprašymas

SNIPPET FROM THE E-BOOK As people travelled, so too did the plague. Travel between towns and villages in the England of the 1660‟s were not nearly as easy as it would be today. Back then, it would take days to make a trip that these days would take only a few hours. Viruses and diseases would easily have been spread from one‟s departure point to one‟s destination, likely with stops along the way. Inns and public houses could be found in most villages, and were places where many people gathered to feast and drink, in fairly unsanitary conditions, sporting poor hygiene themselves. If one did not have a friend or family member to lodge with along their journey, they would have spent time in these buildings, easily sharing such illnesses as the common cold, or a worse fate, the bubonic plague.
