Re: THE PLAGUE OF JUSTINIAN - AD 541-542
I just read about a 12-year period in plague-waves
between 540 and 770, during which the waves became
less severe and more localized.
And then there were almost no plagues in Europe until 1347.
That reminded me to the sun-spots and the hypothetical
11-year pandemic cycle which they assumed in 1976
when there was swine flu scare.
Is there a paper about that 12-year cycle ?
How can it be explained ? Immunity ?
