Pandemics
The role of Pluto as an important co-epidemiologist of the issue should now be noted.
Pluto, an invisible planet, is, by analogy, the ruler of the microscopic world, imperceptible to the naked eye.
It is with him that micro-organisms, bacteria, viruses and also microbiologists and antibiotics are associated.
Pluto also symbolizes genetic material, cloning processes and - above all - the possibility of the annihilation of life on a collective scale.
Remember that this small planet in the outer solar system was discovered around the same time as the first experiments with atomic fission and the risk of a global catastrophe.
Jupiter- Neptune and Jupiter- Pluto junctions, there is a definite epidemic incidence.
In some years they have not managed to have virulence, but it is verified that they have always been present in the worst pandemics in history.

Em 1350 aC, o príncipe de Biblos queixava-se já a Akhenaton de que era caluniosa a notícia de que a peste dizimava seu territórios e que, portanto, não se justificava o não envio de tropas contra o inimigo por seu soberano egípcio. |

-1350 | | In 1350 BC, the Prince of Byblos already complained that the new Akhenaten was defamed that the plague decimated their territories and that therefore there was no justification for not sending troops against the enemy by his Egyptian sovereign. (Cf. Sournia, Jean-Charles and Ruffier, Jacques). |

-428 ? | Athènes - Grèce | Great Athens plague = typhoid fever |
According to information reported by Science & Vie in March 2006, these are typhoid fevers.
The article states that the city lost a third of its population.
About the 'great plague of Athens', La Fontaine's formula
"Not all of them would die, but all of them were afflicted. The phrase "not everyone would die from it, but everyone was affected" is an apt way of summarizing the deleterious effects of the plague: it does not kill the whole population, but when it strikes, it affects an entire community very seriously.
Bible
As far as the plague is concerned, one can find allusions to it in the Old Testament, when it is designated as one of the plagues sent by God for Egypt, or as the cause of the decimation of the Philistines who took possession of the Ark of the Covenant: the plague of Ashdod.
They include, for example, the Biblical plague of Ashdod already mentioned, which is correlated with the arrival of a multitude of rats in the villages and fields,
and Homer's story about the plague that was sent as punishment for the Greeks, in front of Troy, after a sacrilege against the "Apollo, rat killer", in the form of a rain of arrows

12/12/168 | Roman Empire | Antonine plague = Smallpox |
From 165 the Roman Empire, then led by Marcus Aurelius, experienced a major epidemic that seems to have spread over most of the empire from the eastern provinces.
This epidemic, often referred to as the antonine plague, is most often likened to smallpox.
It wreaked havoc until the 1970s, and seems to have struck Rome again during the reign of Commodus.
The famous physician Galen was a witness to this epidemic, which is also described by later authors. The consequences of this epidemic and the extent of its impact on the economy and demography of the empire are much debated.

It was followed by nearly 15 epidemics until 767. |
| Rome | During the winter of 589, Justinian's plague struck Rome heavily, and when Pope Pelagius II, in turn, died on February 8, 590, the terror of the Romans was at its height. Some sources speak of 100 million victims |

Asie - Europe | Great Plague |
The bubonic plague was endemic in Central Asia, and it was probably the wars between the Mongols and the Chinese that triggered the epidemic.
It broke out in 1334 in the Chinese province of Hubei and spread rapidly to the neighbouring provinces of Jiangxi, Shanxi, Hunan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Henan and Suiyuan, a former province disputed between the Mongolian and Chinese empires.

In France, between 1340 and 1440, the population grew from 17 to 10 million, a decrease of 42%.
The parish register of Givry, in Saône et Loire, one of the most accurate, shows that for about 1,500 inhabitants, 649 burials were carried out in 1348, 630 of which took place from June to September, whereas this parish usually had about 40 burials per year: this represents a mortality rate of 40.6%.

1346 | Caffa / Crimée | Great Plague |
In 1346, the Tartars attacked the port city of Caffa, a Genoese trading post, on the Black Sea coast of the Crimea and established their headquarters there. The epidemic, brought back from Central Asia by the Mongols, soon reached the besieged and besieged, as the Mongols were catapulting the corpses of their people over the walls to infect the inhabitants of the city.
The siege was lifted for lack of a sufficient number of able-bodied fighters: Genoa and the Tartars signed a truce; the Genoese ships could now leave the city and spread the plague in all the ports where they stopped.
The Black Death or Bubonic Plague caused about 25 million deaths in Europe between 1346 and 1350, and probably as many in Asia.

Great Plague in Europe: 25 million victims in Europe (as many in Asia).
Transmitted by Genoese ships as early as 1347, it spread in Mediterranean ports before becoming widespread in Western Europe.
Arriving in Marseille at the end of 1347, the Black Death devastated Provence.
It moved up the Rhone Valley (Avignon) to reach Paris in August at a speed of 75 km per day. Half of the country's population was affected.
The plague causes anti-Semitic riots in Provence.
The synagogue of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence is burned down.
It will be rebuilt outside the city in 1352. Jews are burned in Serres, in Dauphiné.

From then on, the plague epidemic spread throughout the whole of Europe from south to north, finding favourable ground: the populations had no antibodies against this variant of the plague bacillus, and they were already weakened by repeated famines, epidemics, a climatic cooling that had been raging since the end of the 13th century, and wars.
In the western part of Europe, the proliferation of the large oriental rat Rattus norvegicus to the detriment of the small European black rat
Rattus rattus also played an important role: cats had almost disappeared in the 14th century, eliminated due to beliefs and superstitions, and ferrets had not yet regained their former vogue.

The Aztec Empire of Mexico City is in contact with the Spaniards and diseases of the Old Continent, against which the people do not have immune defenses.
Simple flu epidemics decimating thousands of Indians and, along with smallpox, syphilis and other infectious diseases, causing more damage than wars and forced labour.
