Why plague doctors wore beaked masks

Nothing like watching this video about plague doctors

While dressed like a plague doctor lmao

Its Halloween my bois Can't wait for this costume

Sol in siberia tomorrow but I study for this better instead

Because it was cool af

They wore them because you know that your final times are happening if they touch you

“It’s now unlikely that another massive outbreak will occur”

COVID: Am I a joke to you?

Thanks doctors, scientists, engineers for not giving up.. I love this artstyle. Never stop making videos with this style, Ted-Ed!.

Wtf corono vaccination almost killed me or made me a disaibeld just because people were in panic or wanted to make money 😢😮

I thought they just needed to dress up as birds for no apparent reason other than just because

Even in 🇱🇹

Today's masks are probably just as useful - ie, not much.

Good video.

Wow hope there will be no more outbreak of pandemic but I'm worrying about Bio weapon will be used soon of someone!

Looking back after some scientific articles have declared masks lesser than N95 to be ineffective against covid-19, it seems very reminiscent of ineffective treatments/preventatives for bubonic plague. I remember people saying that covid would last forever because mandates were not always followed, yet here we are.

Thank you. This was interesting.

Me allergy

Because it has drip

when can i understand ted completely?

We are so lucky to not be alive during this time

lmao that is jus from assassins creed

turpentine sure does look like minis in fortnite

Can we make a cure back then with only the supplies they had?

Summing up the plague doctor in a quote for me would be like: "we work in the dark to serve the light"

TED-Ed: well a plague is unlikely to happen these days
Me: covid

Wait, you royal 2 whoever got this disease one queen of England first reign king Francis son got it to

Me living in a country in Asia : 😭😭

Bad Air- "mal air" hence Malaria

ONE of those beaks survived, for 300 years…and was re-discovered by Colonel Sanders…..”Eleven herbs and spices”!!!!!!

What I love so much about the Plague Doctors is that they are the perfect example of how sometimes just because something is dark and creepy, doesn't necessarily mean they are bad.

It was just fvckin wild, remembering one day being so empty and obviously life changing everywhere, but then you snap out of it and all of a sudden everyone and everythings back to normal

Thank you TED ED for bringing somehow a tribute for medical frontliner, like me. ❤

Um cuz its metal as shi- oh

Blocking the Plague with beaks full of cinnamon and copper? I have doubts about this Galen guy.

Chicken pox den?

I have a no idea why but now i do

It’s because they were like doctors and they wore that mask so whenever treating a deadly disease or anything they have some plant stuff in there mask so when they are breathing in a highly deadly disease or virus they are able to breathe normally

The plague was once known as the most feared disease in the world around the 17th century capable of wiping out hundreds of millions of people in seemingly unstoppable, global pandemics and afflicting it’s victims with painfully swollen lymph nodes blackened skin and other gruesome symptoms.

In the 17th century Europe, the physical tended to plague victims wore a costume that has since taken on sinister overtones they covered them, selves, head to toe and Wore a bird liked beak mask the reason behind the beaked plague mask was a misconception of the the very nature disease.

Army of the 12 Monkeys........ 🤫

I was told plague doctors just killed people who didn't want to die to the plague

We are still living through a pandemic there bud. Wtf?

This is amazing keep up the good work. Ive subed to you for 4 years and i love ur vids plsss make more vidss ☺️☺️☺️😍

because they liked birds, and they were vultures in a way.

cool video

This is similar to how people will look look back at those blue-cloth "facial decorations."

Covid 19 now

Oh we know one of the most important things to do to prevent future pandemics is to stop farming animals.

my man looks like the grim reaper

Fake plage docter is only from scp it is nit in history this is left wing propaganda
