We've forgotten what plagues actually look like. Today we complain about "social media addiction" or "Netflix binges" with casual humor, but real plagues meant waking up covered in sores, watching neighbors die in the streets, and wondering if you'd be next. We're living through an unprecedented stretch of medical fortune-nearly three decades without a major disease decimating the developed world. But history whispers a warning: this luck won't hold forever. What matters most when disease strikes isn't just the pathogen itself, but how ordinary people respond. Do we turn on each other, or do we stand together? The answer has determined which civilizations survived and which crumbled into dust.
