What else am I missing?
Mostly, they died from a lack of medical knowledge.
So many dead children. I count a full one third of all deaths being babies and toddlers.
Kil'd by several accidents
Not sure what that's supposed to mean. Maybe some Final Destination shit where they die due to a series of random chance events?
Lots of great ideas here!
It's interesting how there's a hint of science here, but so much non-science.
Like, trying to categorize things is a bit scientific. Trying to distinguish between similar but different things is a bit scientific. At the same time, so many of these causes of death are symptoms not causes. And, there are too many cases where they didn't bother to try to find a cause, like the "Planet" cases or "Suddenly". Also, almost all of the deaths are in children / infants, but in those cases they don't try to figure out the cause of death, they just note the age.
Consumption I think is not in the sense of eating, but in the sense of the body eating itself ie wasting away.
8 deaths from plague? Fake news, China plague.
Cancer, and Wolf: 10
🤔
Probably speaking of lupus. The only reason that somehow makes any sense 🤔
Leeches cured my gout. If only they knew.
Does "murthered" mean murdered? If so I'm surprised there's only one. TV and movies make it look like life was cheap in old timey London.
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
