Hush-a, Hush-a

Haven't you heard the "Ring Around the Rosie" song?
Patients were wash with vinegar and rose water. The blisters that would form on the body were cut undo to allow them to "breathe" and a mixture of tree resin, roots of white lilies, and dried human excrement was applied to the places where the body was cut undo. They would cut the veins leading to the heart, thinking the disease was contained by the blood. Those are just a few of their crazy theories on how to cure it. Naturally, none of them worked.
