July 27, 1377

Posted on July 27, 2020 by Joel Byers

On July 27, 1377, the first example of a quarantine occurred in the city of Rugusa, which is now Dubroknik, Croatia. The city council passed a law that required newcomers from plague areas to isolate for 30 days, and then later for 40 days. This is where the word quarantine comes from, quaranta is Latin for 40. Wow, the city leaders during the Medieval period were smarter than Trump and his lickspittle, obsequious state Governors. It’s a shame that people who actually believed in alchemy had a better grasp on science and medicine than Trump and the Governors of Arizona, Texas, Florida, Alabama and Georgia.

    You libnuts can’t help yourself, can you? You hate America and Freedoms so much that you can’t stand it that such a great leader, and the best President we’ve ever had, has made this country so great again! No matter what you’re posting about, you’ve just got to stick in some made up slur on the President.

    What you never think about, or don’t have the brains to think about, is how much worse everything would’ve been without President Trumps strong leadership! Just imagine how bad things would be right now, if Crooked Hillary was President… Planned Parenthood would be forcing women to have abortions, pedophilia would be legal, and hundreds of thousands more people would be dead from corneavirus, maybe millions. Plus Socialism would tell you everything to do all the time. Think about that! Even worse, no guns allowed, so “thugs” would rob you and murder you all the time and not even be arrested, because no police! And you can’t complain or you’re racist. Bibles would be illegal too, so you would go to jail just for going to church or talking about Jesus!

    And people like you are the WORST. You act like your just being funny, but that’s just an excuse to say whatever fake news you want to and get away with it. You should be shamed of yourself!

    Oh, Magaman, it appears you’ve overdosed on your erectile dysfunction medication again.
