During the time of Shakespeare, people were susceptible to various diseases, including the Bubonic Plague, which caused widespread outbreaks and significant mortality. Other common illnesses included smallpox, influenza, and typhus, exacerbated by poor sanitation and overcrowded living conditions. Additionally, diseases like syphilis and tuberculosis were prevalent, affecting many individuals in both urban and rural areas. The lack of understanding about germs and sanitation further contributed to the spread of these illnesses.
