Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Glasgow Medical Journal, Vol. 91: January to June, 1919 Italy bleeding was extensively practised, and nearly all those who were bled died, of them in Rome alone. In unbled patients the mortality was very low. The weather conditions varied from intense heat to unusual cold there were earthquakes in Yorkshire and Kent. During this epidemic, in the month of August, while an English force was advancing through Kerry in the war against the Desmonds suddenlie such a sicknes came among the' soldiers, which tooke them in the head, that at one instant there were above three hundred of them sicke. And for three daies they laie as dead stockes, looking still when they' should die; but yet such was the good will of God that few died for they all recovered. This Sicknesse not long after came into England and was called the gentle correction. In this year the weekly deaths in London rose from 55 in the end of June to 133 and 146 in the middle of July, falling gradually to the previous rate by the middle of August.
