That's why geneticists are working overtime to try to document everybody's lineage because evolution through diversification and Regional isolation causes all the variations you see today as most people were born live their entire lives and died within 20 to 50 miles of where they were born all the way up until just the last few Generations and now things are getting pretty muddled and I suspect within a few more Generations probably not very many Bloodlines that pure will exist any longer so they better get mapping while they can

God Rest His Soul My roommate of 3 years I used to live with, she's almost 90 and saw what hitllers regime did to people and her mom put her on a cargo ship as a stow away, and sent her to Canada and then came 10 years later to join her here. She told me many stories but the one that sticks out if how they couldn't swim or use the water in the steams or go down there because there was bodies everywhere in the rivers and shores of Zagreb, her dad was one of them and went away one day and never came back as they were at war Much Love and God Bless You

Just a thought: I lived in Europe for several years, and always found it amazing while I was there that so many people could simply walk to a nearby graveyard and point out ancesters going back as much as 700 years. Of course we all have ancestors, but the trek to and then across America during the settlement years almost invaribly means many Americans are somewhat cut off from much of their history and distant ancestry, or at least without significant travel. This is an interestiing and engaging story. Thanks!

And along comes fauci with that info in tow, and sets about creating a bug, given by a needle, to actually give a person the new plague he created. Talk about wicked!

My great-grandma lost her first born, a baby boy, to the Spanish flu. One of the boys in town came home from WWI, and they had a “Dinner on the grounds” after church to celebrate his safe return (seems to have been some kind of a super sized potluck, it was winter so they were all packed into the fellowship building). He was coughing a lot, but with coal fired trains, it wasn’t unusual to have a cough after several days of sooty air. Ten days later, he was dead, and every family at the potluck had at least one person that was sick. Two weeks later, they were out of coffins. A month later, every family in that small town had lost at least one person. Children from big farm families found themselves orphaned. There were people who lost all of their children. It gutted the town, and it never grew again; young people who survived moved away to get away from the horrible memories of the “dying time.” And my great-grandma lost her first born son to the Spanish Flu, and her last surviving child to Covid-19. What a horrible bookend in our family.

My grandmother born in 1898 survived the Spanish flu due to the diligence of her family that nursed her around the clock. Her fever was so high her hair fell out and her skin peeled like chips. They gave her water, baking soda water, water mixed with different herbs. They kept her clean and washed. Made her situp on pillows. I remember going to family reunions and when who had been sick in their family this particular one always was talked about. The family wore homemade masks and drank baking soda water everyday. When Grandma turned 30 her hair turned white and she had an enlarged heart but lived to be almost 95. The rest of her family did not get the flu as bad. That was amazing in itself but they lived on a farm.

@@jendubay3782 -- Conservatives are the ones who advocate for a color-blind society, in which people are judged according to their individual character, not according to some collective race, class, or gender membership. Racists are collectivists, and the Southern racists were Democrats. Today, Democrats continue in their collectivism. Collectivism is the theme that unites fascism, Nazism, communism, and most of socialism. Collectivist ideologies were responsible for the deaths of more than 100 million civilians in the last century. To view another person as a member of an "other" group is to diminish their humanity and to dehumanize them, so it follows that mass murder is so often the outcome of collectivist ideologies.

As I recall, many of the more remote villages in Europe had no survivors and no one really knew who died of plague and who just died. Sometimes, there was no one in the nearest villages alive who even knew the names of these places. And since the plague took the literate and illiterate alike, it is impossible to know who and how many by written word. Sometimes I can't imagine how horrific it might have been for the last survivor of one of those villages. Even animals died, whether from plague or neglect; in fact, when survivors from other places found that pigs survived and wandering loose, they killed the pigs and left them where they died. They feared, knowing pigs will eat anything to live, to take them back with them.

If it's a bacterium type plague that's easily treatable with current antibiotics (hopefully it's not antibiotic resistant), then that kind of plague would be easier to contain and control than an airborne virus. Given the extreme volume of human population in addition to easy global travel, pathogenic diseases aren't a surprise. To counter that, non-human species like horses must go through quite the screening check by a vet + pre-travel and post-destination arrival quarantine to prevent novel pathogens entering local populations. Maybe people forget they're animals too that spread disease too, and should follow some similar guidelines when traveling about the world to protect public safety. All the while no need to be freaked out either. Pathogens are kind of everywhere. Good grief, why did I click on this documentary. Leave out the dang drama, cut it short, and be informative.

It’s amazing to realize that the spreading of ‘The Plague’ from rat fleas is now recognized as a a much, much smaller reason for its spread. We have now learned that this bacterial disease was spread much more & more rapidly through Body Lice (vs. Hair Lice) & person-to-person contact - especially if the bacteria existed in the lungs & caused coughing.

I was diagnosed with an infection called Hib( haemophillus influenza) it's not a flu though , in my case it was in my lungs and comes back too often now, not 1 dr said about wearing a mask, I asked could it be contagious for others and was reassured, No, but on researching it , you can pass it on , and it was first discovered 1900,s , then named an influenza due to there being the influenza deaths at the time, but if u research further back this goes back to the plague, Iam more vulnerable towards it now due to underlying health issues, but it can still b passed on. When I explained my fears to a dr , he replied, you've done your research and I said I had to because not 1 of u r telling me Yes or No . Haemophillus is a gram negative bacterial infection. & quite the acrobat. Its scary to think haemophillus could have been the plague, because it is a bacteria .. Keep Lifted .

I saw this documentary about 20 years ago. It has stayed in the back of my mind ever since. I remembered some of the detail, some memory was scetchy. All I could remember about the gene was that it started with a "D". Glad to see this again, have now written down the name of the gene & will be researching how studies on Delta 32 have progressed/advanced in the 20+ years this initial research was done.

I read years ago that an Austrian or German village did the same with regards to isolation. They too took it as a miracle and each year (or every 7 years) they hold a parade and festival celebration because they survived.

Year of Wonders is a book inspired by Eyam, England. I am a RN, and have always enjoyed reading about the origin of disease. The plague also visited the Navajo Nation by way of fleas on prairie dogs and mice. I was exposed when a young doctor from the East coast lanced a bubo.

Very interesting investigation, but it raises some questions. 1. If so many people (50%?) of that village survived the plague, they were already 'enriched' in that gene by some previous event??? Or the gene was a random mutation and they were all interbred.... not rare in those times... 2. Also, if that poor woman had 2 copies of the gene, ALL HER CHILDREN had (at least) one copy of the gene as well... But they were not protected. Of course, young age, malnutrition, etc must have played a role, but still... all 6? heartbreaking

So the information being presented here is close to two decades old. There's nothing wrong with that but it would be better if the video had updated information (such as information about the drug _maraviroc,_ which mimics the delta32 mutation by binding to the CCR5 receptor, making it impossible for HIV to do so).

I saw the documentary about the mutant Gene Delta 32 many years ago when they tested Steve Cronin and his resistance to AIDS. I thought at the time how amazing that those who have European ancestors who survived the plague could possibly passed on at least one copy if not two copies of Gene Delta 32. As a family historian I have always wondered why my direct ancestors had survived during the time of the plague, in particularly the 14c plague as well as the 17c plague. After watching the documentary years ago, I wondered how many of us carry Gene Delta 32. Now I wonder if this also affects some of us in 2020 from getting COVID-19. This is extremely interesting 🤔 and I wonder if any research regarding Gene Delta 32 and COVID-19 has been done. On a side note, I have always been fascinated by the Village of Eyam since reading the novel, Year of Wonders by Geraldine Brooks in 2001 so I went to visit the village a couple of years later. I highly recommend both the book and a visit to the village if you are interested in their story. Fascinating!

I bring this up because the Government was studying people who lived beyond 90 without any of the common maladies that affect the elderly. I have never read anything about the results of this study and wonder if these individuals carried the Delta 32 gene mutation. Does anyone know about this study?

TB is caused by a bacteria, not a virus. Before antibiotics, it could be chronic in people - going and coming as the body would grow strong, then vulnerable. Some overcame it all together but it usually took months of rest, fresh air and good nutrition.

My aunt had the plague back in the 60s and the governor had the whole county quarantined for like a whole month. I reckon she lived in a town in kentucky sumwhere but I'm not entirely certain guys so dont hold me to that. She and my uncle were snorkeling around the coastline in the Philippines while my uncle was stationed there and apparently they discovered a little black box with jars full of great antique coins in it and when my aunt got home and had the coins out to clean them she contracted the plague. It was so sad because when i was little i never knew why my aunt sheila never had any children but come to find out it was because her fever had gotten so high while she was sick that it somehow damaged her reproductive system. Idk maybe the virus itself was directly responsible somehow. I wish i could hug her once more because she and my uncle don were always so good to me especially when my mom would bust my hind end when i got in trouble 😆😅. May they r i p.

The result came back as Yersinia pestis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa & MRSA... these are all common bugs in hospitals apparently.

He didn't catch the plague despite contact with the corpses, perhaps (it was assumed) the alcohol in his blood disinfected everything. And he continued busking for years after the plague.

Why would a benevolent and loving god take the lives of four innocent children?

Yeah, prayer had nothing to do with anything.

Sounds like increased nutrition may have helped the ill survive. Plus the isolation may have made people nurse their neighbors whereas in the city people were trapped and ostracized!!

I think that could've certainly contributed to it, yes. But don't discount the genes.

Towards the beginning of the documentary they factored nutrition and hygiene in. It didn't make a difference. If you caught the plague it was most likely a death sentence

Well it's certainly true that life in the country was probably safer. Less people, cleaner water, better sanitation. But more likely a smaller gene pool so greater chance of gene reproduction.

Today I walk my dog Franky in a special park. In the middle-ages this was the place where the "Schrobbers" ("Scrubbers") lived. They are the people who cleaned the houses of plague-victims. They lived here, this place was called "Schrobbershoek" ("Scrubberscorner") and they were qaurantined here in this place. History is amazing!

Outstanding video and presentation.

Watching this while having a burger in quarantine, groovy

why are you in quarantine? Fresh air and sunshine is still healthy despite of what they say.

@@kevinc809 Despite what who says? It is known that the cooler temperatures will bring people inside closer together. Oh you think because they wanted people to stay home early on it was because, oh, you don't understand what is happening do you? You poor creature, I feel sorry for you, doing everyday tasks required by the modern human, may be much easier than our hunter gatherer ancestors, must be so difficult for you.
