Antonine Plague (1 jan 165 ano – 1 jan 180 ano)
Descrição:
ancient pandemic brought back to the Roman Empire by troops returning from campaigns in the Near East. Scholars have suspected it to have been either smallpox[1] or measles,[2][3] but the true cause remains undetermined.
The total deaths have been estimated at 5 million, and the disease killed as much as one-third of the population in some areas and devastated the Roman army.
