# Nostredame practises during the 1546–47 plague outbreaks at Aix and Lyon as later lives tell it Date: 1546 ## The fact Britannica records that after moving to Salon he gained renown for treatments during plague outbreaks at Aix and Lyon in 1546–47. National Geographic independently frames him as a physician-apothecary in plague years. It is one event. ## Context Presence in an outbreak is not a cure certificate. Bloodletting and aromatic powders described in the later Traité are other rows if printed. Shared work with unnamed local practitioners remains. [Nostradamus](/people/nostradamus)’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death. Britannica places innovative medical treatments during plague at Aix and Lyon in 1546–47 after a 1544 move to Salon. Later medical history does not convert rose-pills or bleeding into a verified mortality series. He did not file a modern epidemic return. Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers are the surviving public file. ## Evidence and sources Britannica — Nostradamus and National Geographic — Who was Nostradamus independently describe this instrument. Official or archival record: Britannica — Nostradamus (https://www.britannica.com/biography/Nostradamus; Encyclopaedia Britannica). ## Significance Local plague practice is a health-capacity path of medium confidence on occurrence in the received file, low on clinical effectiveness. ## What is established and what is not Established as a sourced public record of this instrument at the date assigned here. What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions. The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit. Established here: a sourced, dated public instrument with a named contribution by Nostradamus. They are not a public rating. The driver `health-system-capacity` is attached because the mechanism named in Significance follows from this instrument, not because a standing list of welfare headings needed another tick. Nostradamus did not file a later UNESCO form, a later Loeb colophon, or a later museum label as a personal act. A portrait or conventional bust is not this mechanism. Allegation, reconstruction, and established occurrence stay distinct. Do not pretend a rose-pill changed 1546 mortality. Do not skip the practice because later readers wanted only quatrains. Keep the carrier date of later English distinct from the received historical year stored in the date field. Do not read a later English edition as a recovered autograph of Nostradamus. ## People - Nostradamus: https://factrail.ai/people/nostradamus ## Drivers - Health-System Capacity: https://factrail.ai/drivers/health-system-capacity ## Sources - https://www.nationalgeographic.com/history/article/who-was-nostradamus-plague-astrology-predictions - https://www.britannica.com/biography/Nostradamus ## Methodology https://factrail.ai/methodology Canonical: https://factrail.ai/facts/nos-aix-lyon-plague-practice-1546
