Hello friends, let's talk about the cause of death of George Washington, the first ** of the United States. At that time, the medical conditions were far worse than today, and Washington's laryngitis caused by a cold was not particularly serious at first, but because the doctors used bloodletting**, Washington died of excessive blood loss. What are the details?Put on your gold-rimmed glasses and let's find out.
What was the situation like at that time?George Washington had never been in good health, suffering from malaria, smallpox, dysentery, and other terrible diseases. There are also dental problems, wearing dentures made of ivory, ** or other animal teeth. None of these diseases defeated him until the laryngitis caused by a cold. On December 13, 1799, Washington rode around his Mount Vernon on horseback in freezing rain and snow. When I got home, I soon became hoarse and had a fever. But he didn't think much of it, because he was used to being sick. The next day, he woke up with a sore throat that made it very difficult to breathe and swallow (the symptoms were similar).
