The Sweating Sickness: The Plague That Vanished
-
Narrated by:

You could be healthy at breakfast and dead by supper. For nearly a century, a mysterious illness swept through Tudor England, killing the young and strong with terrifying speed — and then it disappeared from the earth, before anyone ever discovered what it was.
This episode traces the sweat through its waves of terror, its strange preference for the healthy and wealthy, its brushes with Anne Boleyn and the royal court — and the medical mystery that, five centuries later, has still never been solved.
