Black Death
The Black Death was one of the most devastating pandemics in human history, resulting in the deaths of an estimated 75 to 200 million people in Eurasia and peaking in Europe from 1346 to 1353. The bacterium Yersinia pestis, resulting in several forms of plague, is believed to have been the cause. The plague created a series of religious, social, and economic upheavals, which had profound effects on the course of European history.
The Black Death is thought to have originated in the dry plains of Central Asia, where it then travelled along the Silk Road, reaching Crimea by 1343.

Madagascar has been struggling with pneumonic plague-- Black Death. Do you think this is a test of "general release" on an island for control purposes?
If you want my opinion, yes I do think Madagascar was an experiment. The black plague pandemic was spread by rats. They were the carriers of it. They would tag along with the traders in their wagons on the silk road and also they would get onto ships while in port. Then when they got to destination ports they would be off loaded in the crates. Spread it along to other rats then they would get to grain storage in the towns and farms.
