"History of medicine"

Literally every single episode of Evangelion:

Also every day in the life of عمر بن أبي ربيعة:

طبعًا أكو شخص كلي أشوف هالأنمي من أكثر من سنة، ووعدته اشوفه بوقتها، بس هسة يلا داشوفه... 😂
I have an excuse tho; I suffer from this medical condition... Doctors call it procrastination

Many of the worst human diseases were created by proximity to animals. Cattle provided the pathogen pool with tuberculosis and viral poxes like smallpox. Pigs and ducks gave humans their influenzas, while horses brought rhinoviruses and hence the common cold. Measles, which still kills a million children a year, is the result of rinderpest (canine distemper) jumping between dogs or cattle and humans. Moreover, cats, dogs, ducks, hens, mice, rats, and reptiles carry bacteria like salmonella, leading often to fatal human infections; water polluted with animal faeces also spreads polio, cholera, typhoid, viral hepatitis, whooping cough and diphtheria.

Moreover, though agriculture enabled more mouths to be fed, it meant undue reliance on starchy cereal monocultures like maize, high in calories but low in proteins, vitamins and minerals; reduced nutritional levels allowed deficiency diseases like pellagra, marasmus, kwashiorkor and scurvy to make their entry onto the human stage. Stunted people are more vulnerable to infections, and it is a striking comment on 'progress' that neolithic skeletons are typically some inches shorter than their paleolithic precursors.

The word 'parasite' meant someone who shared one’s food in return for providing amusement and flattery. The ‘parasitus ridiculus’ was a popular character in Greek and early Roman comedies and they even had joke books to help them should they run out of witticisms. The greed of the parasite was a constant source of fun for dramatists and he was often given crude nicknames such as ‘little brush–because he swept the table clean’.
