You can clearly see the real-life versions of some of these diseases, just from their descriptions The Pox - STDs Red Spots - Measles Red Death - Ebola/Other Hemorrhagic fevers I dont know of any irl versions of Greyscale though
I recall reading about Hedge Maesters, in the Feast prologue, Pate mentions them and thought about traveling from village to village being a healer to get by
This is an important step for your channel! Sponsored content might provide you with enough resources to expand it even more! Love it that it's so clearly stated that it's sponsored. And the video was really informative. Well at this point I'm no longer surprised that your videos have such high standards! Good job
I first came across this gem of a channel a few months back, this is without a doubt one of my favourite TH-cam channels around. Keep up the good work bro.
The "spring fever" sounds similar to the sweating sickness. The virus that causes it is possibly a distant cousin of the Hanta virus (spread through rat droppings). Disease specialists even today still know very little about this disease, but it's far less virulent now with better plumbing and pest control.
One thing I don't think he mentioned is that 'milk of the poppy' is basically the drug Opium. Heavy use of it is why the mountain is the sociopath, since he takes it regularly to ease the horrible migraines that he suffered from since he was a child.
Shoot you're right I should have mentioned the Gregor connection, I also should have mentioned you can overdose on it. Well if I ever update this vid I'll keep that in mind. :)
Your video is excellent as always, but what really caught my attention is the sponsorship of a medical tourism group. I've seen audible and web design firms, but this is a first.
Darshan Hiremath lol comment and sub to Seoul Guide Medical and you'll have a chance. And I actually plan to do more giveaways going forward, especially as I get closer to 100 000 subs, so stay tuned :)
Just think what would happen if they had a printing press! No more handwriting everything and able to spread the word quickly. Also makes you wonder why to the maesters have to know everything? Why can't some just study medicine so it can be available to the small folk? Okay I'm reading too much into this...
I'm glad you're getting sponsored but wtf is this sponsored? Does this seem like something your viewers would like? It just seems a little odd to see a medical tourism company sponsoring these types of videos.
Super odd lol, I figured people would be a little thrown off by it, but I actually have a personal connection to them, I worked in Korea for a few years and have a good relationship with them and they have been super supportive of this channel even becoming one of my highest contributing patreon followers, and they just started a channel so I wanted to help them out. I did make this video specifically about medicine and disease though! So that was my attempt to bring a little relevance into the equation lol.
Dude I could give zero fucks especially condensing crusader king 2 Reapers due just came out which overhauls the disease and sickness mechanics so this is extremlty helpful to the GOTCK2 mod
I can assure you they are not, I know them personally and they are amazing people who simply connect people all over the world to the best doctors and hospitals in South Korea. This is especially helpful for people in countries with poor or unaffordable health care options.
Maesters' medicine to everything: milk of the poppy
Don't forget essence of nightshade
That's for digestive system or women's weapon.
+Serpher oh ok
careful you you might be come addicted to it.
It's the Westerosi Epsom salt.
George did a good job of making all of these diseases sound absolutely disgusting
Any CivilizationEx vid I see pop in my notifications I stop (almost) everything and have to watch it.
:)
Yeah, same here.
I could be having a stroke and I'll stop it just for these vids.
I was about to lose my virginity but a Civ Ex vid came out
Cool and clearly disclosed sponsored video. Very enjoyable
Thank you! :)
You can clearly see the real-life versions of some of these diseases, just from their descriptions
The Pox - STDs
Red Spots - Measles
Red Death - Ebola/Other Hemorrhagic fevers
I dont know of any irl versions of Greyscale though
It's called leperosy
red spots could be the same as chicken pox too though
Or the pox could be.... Chicken pox lol
You have contracted the great pox -.5 health and -20 attractiveness.
General noob ~ remove_trait has_great_pox

I'm a simple man. I see an ASOIAF video from you and I like it.

Definitely deserve a lot more subscribers for this
Such a developed fictional world. I love works like this. You're great, don't stop these videos.
I've always wanted to know more about the medicine of ASOIAF. thanks!!

Raped by Elephants. One of Torsofucks greatest hits.
I commented over there. Thanks!
Weren't Hedge Maesters mentioned in Book 1? Maybe I'm misremembering.
Do you mind telling us what font do you use, and if it can be used elsewhere( I mean is it copyright protected) ?
It is Augusta, and it is free to use for anyone
Thank you!
These font really blends well with fantasy genres in your videos, I don't knwo why, but they just do :)

No worries, it's a well known fact ASOIAF videos help with math homework. So you're all good! :P
+CivilizationEx Dude, you are so chill man.
Your video is excellent as always, but what really caught my attention is the sponsorship of a medical tourism group. I've seen audible and web design firms, but this is a first.
I know them personally, and they have always been very supportive of this channel so I wanted to help them out.
You did a great job and in a video when the message was congruent.
Wait - didn't Catalyn Stark say Jon Snow got the Pox as a kid? How does that work if it is a venereal disease?
That's just in the show
Neat sponsor
Ha ! A fan from the Far East ! More videos of MCU pls Mr Civilization ex
Coming soon :)
+CivilizationEx Pls give me the Gift card mate , badly need it 😭 :P
Darshan Hiremath lol comment and sub to Seoul Guide Medical and you'll have a chance. And I actually plan to do more giveaways going forward, especially as I get closer to 100 000 subs, so stay tuned :)

Orphans of the Greenblood sounds like something from Bloodborne
This is nice !!!!!
Huh,I only knew about maggots
Jon was infected by the pox right? when he was little? how the fuck did that happen if it's a venereal disease?
For some reason when I saw this I yelled fuck yeah 😅
:)
I'm glad you're getting sponsored but wtf is this sponsored? Does this seem like something your viewers would like? It just seems a little odd to see a medical tourism company sponsoring these types of videos.

Dude I could give zero fucks especially condensing crusader king 2 Reapers due just came out which overhauls the disease and sickness mechanics so this is extremlty helpful to the GOTCK2 mod
legend
but maybe dude some more second age videos
The Koreans are indeed surging ahead.
I don't at all like the way you say resources. There's no z in it, that's for damn sure.
Poor small folk
Man that sponsor seems shady.
I can assure you they are not, I know them personally and they are amazing people who simply connect people all over the world to the best doctors and hospitals in South Korea. This is especially helpful for people in countries with poor or unaffordable health care options.
