The black death... The problem is without the antibiotics/ treatments of the modern world( took centuries to prefect) how will they push back this rampaging virus?

So China's plague also spread to isekai hmmmmm

@Lucrecia : I don't mean to trivialize the 1918 flu pandemic, it was certainly a big deal as you say, and you'll get no argument from me about that. But if you look at per capita deaths especially, it wasn't of the same magnitude as the plague. There were outbreaks of the plague that killed over half the population in some places in the same amount of time. (See The Italian Plague of 1629–1631)

Although, in terms of per capita deaths, small pox in the Americas might beat the plague, but I haven't done the math on that one in particular.

Still, as far as the story goes, the precautions Letizia came up with for dealing with general illness would already be the best defense against the flu. The flu vaccine wasn't invented until 1938 so it wasn't used in the 1918 outbreak, and wouldn't help the people already sick if she did create one; whereas the plague is readily handled with antibiotics.

I get taken out of the story whenever she deals with an illness. I get that it's referencing things from real life/history and that's just a part of the genre but still... I get bored I guess.

@Icekatze: In fact, seen in terms of plot, what disease could give the heroine a shine of splendour, making the danger re-enter with the "discovery" of penicillin and with the extermination of fleas - the real vector of the bubonic plague - better than the aforesaid plague?

These stories are always of a hallucinating banality. And above all, they make a mixture of past medieval eras without a hint of logic, with eighteenth and nineteenth century clothes, Victorian culture, an environment between the early Middle Ages and the Renaissance (without taking into account that they are over 1,200 years of history), and intellectual and technological skills - while the protagonists are always the Japanese geniuses - of the men of Neanderthal.

Time to introduce bubonic plague in otome manga

 

[Pokari]

Ah, it's the obligatory bubonic plague episode! Every medical isekai must have one.

 

[wilddeath]

i love the idea that the king being wishy washy about annulling the marriage despite all the reasons to do so allowed the circumstances for the fucking bubonic plague to emerge. Dude needs to put on his big boy pants and set the MC free already. she has more than earned it.

Reading this chapter in the midst of covid-19 pandemic

 

[silentscarlettt]

Reading this during the coronavirus

 

[Lilyclaire]

Anyone else having a lag time uploading the chapters?

 

[hunnybunchsugarplum]

Corona Virus

 

[matalines]

So covid-19 has come reach here.

 

[Zephyr247]

Doesn’t it suck when the preventative measures you thought would work don’t work and people still get sick? But, at least they have a good source of information.

Maybe I’ll pause this one, covid is still going on and I’m not really in the mood to read about the bubonic plague. Not when this whole thing could drag on for at the very least another year.

 

[AMetroid]

"Major outbreak" "Spots on the body" Ugg they're not doing bubonic plague, are they? ... Yep. Sigh. Well with how stupid the kidnaping arc was I don't have any hopes for this.

The base ideas aren't too bad, but they are being excited so ham fisted that I have a hard time thinking this is for anyone over the age of 12.

 

[rona_shen]

LOL

 

[Bluehammer12]

Bubonic Plague? Again? You know Japan, there are many other plagues throughout history you can cover.
