Great work Aldhissla, wonderful research. I love all those old books from the 19th century, here's my contribution; Are Epidemics Contagious? (1887) by John Parkin https://archive.org/details/b2169056x/page/50/mode/2up
Great article. I always wondered what might have caused the Black Death and the Justinian Plague if we agree Germ Theory is wrong. and found out new scientific evidence showing it was actually caused by poisoning of the atmosphere by possible a comet braking up in the atmosphere. Greenland ice cores, tree rings as well as written accounts from the time seem to collaborate it. Here's a great book on the topic. https://web.archive.org/web/20230124193356/https://www.sott.net/article/145683-New-Light-on-the-Black-Death-The-Cosmic-Connection
Thanks Usul. Here is an excellent documentary about the Justinian Plague featuring the author of the book you mentioned - Mike Baillie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKUz5Vjq9-s
Also I suggest reading chapter 3 of this book published in 1846. According to physician Justus Hecker, the Black Death "was a consequence of violent commotions in the earth's organism."
The link to Dr. Thompson's 1906 article is a Jstor link and I am unable to view the full article or to find it elsewhere.
From what I can gather, Thompson followed the belief that plague is transmitted to humans via the rat-flea vector route, although this doesn't make a lot of sense to me given what Sam Bailey's video on Plague says about the Thompson's study in Sidney, Australia, following some 300 plague victims and not finding any transmission within households.
Do you have access to Thompson's "On the Epidemiology of Plague" in full and is it something you could pass on to me?

Turn to page 51 for The Plague.
I added some of the information found in that document to the article.
Thank you! Great information.

Unfortunatly he passed away last year.
Here is a presentation of his work: https://www.youtube.com/live/47OkP_wOmvg

Thank you! Looking forward to checking the links out.
Coming late to this discussion. Please consider adding to your awareness:
The predicted plague: value of the prediction, planetary, and atmospheric influences considered as causes of black death and other plagues (1900)

Chapter on atmospheric origin starts on p. 148
Awesome work my friend. Thank you <3
Thanks :)
I’ll have to look up some more of Clot Bey. Thank you.
It’s nice to find more figures in history that aren’t preaching the established contagion narrative.
I've just completed a 2-part series on the Justinian Plague and the Black Death, respectively:

Cool, thanks!
Great job, wow, thank you!

Excellent report.
Also begs the question, "What was this thing they called "The Plague."
A result of natural disasters.
Read chapter 3 and you will understand why: https://archive.org/details/epidemicsofmiddl00unse/page/10/mode/2up
I would be interested to know how such events impacted soil degradation and created food shortages.
