Re: Avian Flu and "The Black Death" of the Middle Ages


>>From the Howard Hughes Medical Institute:

"This is an interesting hypothesis. You are correct that it is not
absolutely
certain what caused the Black Death."

The statement then went on to say that most conservitive scientists do
hold that it was Yersinia Pestis, however this view is by "educated
guess" only and not any actual proof.

You can reply all you want but this topic will always remain open for
debate as long as no sufficient evidence is obtained to definatively
rule in one direction or another.
