The History of Medicine

3.3 - The End of the Middle


Listen Later

Let's finish up with the Middle Ages this week. We'll talk about two illnesses that would shape public health in this time period, leprosy and the bubonic plague. Between them, a practice that we call quarantine will be born. Simultaneously, hospitals will spread across the land, bringing our time in the Middle Ages to a close.
