Once every century - epidemic, or curse?
There is such a proverb in English. Its Bengali meaning is the repetition of history. Yes, that is largely true; Again, most of them are just blown away by coincidence. However, from a historical point of view, since history moves at its own pace, history repeats itself to keep its pace moving. In today's article, I will highlight such a historical story, which has actually reappeared every one century or a century or a hundred years.
The world is now worried about coronavirus. And why not be afraid? There is no cure or cure for the disease. Although this is the case, it is not entirely true. Because China has already set a precedent for the rest of the world in overcoming its own epidemic. China has saved the people of the country by using its own technology. You already know those things. Today you will be told a different story.
Did you know that one hundred years ago today, in the 1920's, such an epidemic broke out worldwide? The virus, known as the Spanish flu, killed millions of people. The war-torn period of World War I was extremely frightening and deadly.
Let's talk a little further back, two hundred years ago. Cholera was rampant throughout Asia in the 1820's. There was no cure for the disease, which had become epidemic throughout Asia. The doctors themselves were emotionally broken by the pressure of the people. Think about it, how terrible was that time?
A hundred years back. That is, three hundred years ago. 1820 The plague came in the form of an epidemic when the world was constantly intoxicated with the hope of moving forward. Never before in the history of the world has the plague been described as more deadly than the plague. Thousands of people have died due to lack of treatment and care. Think? Ga shure not panic?
So did you catch the link this time? Every 100 years since 1820, an epidemic has spread worldwide, killing millions of people. The repetition of history? Or a curse? Outbreaks of epidemics, or the sacrifice of a voluntary conspiracy? Let's know a little detail and understand ourselves - what is the real incident?
