Brief mention in The Times again

Post by marcus »

There was an article on malaria in The Times yesterday, which in typical fashion included a list of famous sufferers of the disease.At least when they mentioned Alexander they said that "some people believe" that he died of malaria, rather than saying he definitely did.They didn't mention monkey bites, though ...All the bestMarcus
