It was proclaimed that no one should go to or leave Ruda island. All those who violate this instruction will be punished. The householder will lose his right eye and all other family members will be stamped on their faces.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">However, just two days later the whole Lopud was infected. Protective measures were increased. One nobleman with two ships supervised the Lopud island and made sure that islanders do not interfere with the others. Nevertheless, this kind of regime stopped the spread of contamination and saves the rest of the Dubrovnik Republic territory.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/lopudapartments.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Lopud-Tour-Guide-Rosy-the-story-of-Lopud-plague.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.27.3&#8243;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/lopudapartments.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Lopud-Island-Blog-by-Tour-Guide-Rosy.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justify&#8221; max_width=&#8221;600px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; text_text_align=&#8221;justify&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">What is the plague, and how was it spread?<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justify&#8221; max_width=&#8221;600px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; text_text_align=&#8221;justify&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Plague is caused by bacteria \u201cYersinia pestis\u201d. It is transmitted when a person is bitten by fleas carried by rodents. During the middle age, it was believed that plague was caused by God as punishment, a position of the planets, the fall of meteors, comets, earthquakes, eclipses, and witches. However, we know now that the rise of international trade which created large economic networks, urbanization, and a lack of medical knowledge contributed to the disastrous spread of the plague. The Black Death (1347) remains the most devastating pandemic in human history which wiped out about a third of Europe\u2019s population.\u00a0In return, however, the disease helped catapult crucial advancements in microbiology, medicine, urban planning, and sanitation methods.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;50px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;1&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.27.3&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.27.3&#8243; background_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0.03)&#8221; z_index=&#8221;10&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;140px|60px|60px|60px|false|true&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;40px|40px|40px|40px|true|true&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;20px|20px|20px|20px|true|true&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justify&#8221; max_width=&#8221;600px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||20px||false|false&#8221; text_text_align=&#8221;justify&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Have you heard about plague doctors?<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.2&#8243; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justify&#8221; max_width=&#8221;600px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; text_text_align=&#8221;justify&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The plague doctors in the Dubrovnik Republic were kacamorti.
