I chose this piece of work because science is one of my best subjects and I felt that I put a lot of effort into it. I enjoyed doing this so much and I learnt a lot. Not just information on the plague but also researching and presentation skills. I hope you enjoy reading this and learn a bit of history about the plague from the case study. If I was to improve this PowerPoint I would improve the case study by doing MORE research on it, rather then giving up after 20min.. Samantha Villasana. The Start. The plague did. not spread once, but many times over centuries. .. The plague also referred to as . as. the Black Death is said to have started in . China.. Cause. Cause. Ignorance Pandemic. The Aids epidemic came to light during the 1980s. Its breakout started in the continent of Africa, because the virus damages the person’s immune system and along with the poor sanitation and carelessness of the people, many Africans died. Also with its sudden breakout in the United States also having many people infected this bred pubic hysteria, hatred was elevated once again. Like in the past, in the Dark Ages had an epidemic called the Bubonic Plague or the “Black Death”. It was lethal as the AIDS virus, infected people would experience swelling on the lymph nodes or the legs which then turned black. Panic and fear struck, no physician could explain the catastrophe, it left people into the state of ignorance. Without any answers of the disease, violence, hate, and hunting of scapegoats erupted. Having many people die like the AIDS epidemic, the bubonic plague was also from people’s carelessness and poor sanitation but again hysteria blinds people from resolution, without resolution then ignorance begins. By these two evens in history this reveals hysteria and ignorance by humans causes hate and destruction. . encouraged to reuse our maps and graphs . for your own . purposes and free to translate, . provided the . content is not altered and the source . is acknowledged. .
