History Has Symptoms

Hi! I'm Nora, a nurse from California. I study biology and history and I also run this channel

On History Has Symptoms we dig into the history of medicine and the human body: the Black Death, the 1918 flu, quarantine, old remedies that worked (and the ones that poisoned people), and the myths we still believe. Every number on screen has a source. If I can't source it, I won't say it.

New episodes every week. Subscribe and ring the bell — and tell me in the comments which era you'd never survive.
