Valassopoulo, décédé en1923, fut médecin en chef de l'hôpital d'Alexandrie. REFERENCE : Hirst A & Silk M: Alexandria, Real and Imagined: "In 1901, Dr A. Valassopoulo, the resident Doctor-in Chief at the Greek Hospital in Alexandria, wrote about his experience with plague in the city. The observations of his patients, the majority of whom were grocers and spice merchants, led him to conclude that some items, purchased directly from a country where plague was present, served as a vehicle for the disease. These patients confirmed that dead rats were to be found near their establishments; one spice-shop owner counted more than two hundred dead rats and a dead cat in the space of a few days. From these accounts, Valassopoulo concluded that rats were the principal agents of the plague's propagation. His accounts are of importance because he was among the first to describe 'rat falls' or the presence of large numbers of dead rats during outbreaks of human plague?. Valassopoulo dismissed arguments that extremes of temperature influenced plague."; Contis G: Environment, health and disease in Alexandria and the Nile Delta, 2017); Bonhomme E: Plagued bodies and spaces: medicine, trade and death in Ottoman Egypt and Tunisia, 1705-1830 CE; Echenberg M: Plague Ports: The Global Urban Impact of Bubonic Plague; Simpson WJ: A Treatise on Plague.
