Pestilence is the disaster that strikes Thebes in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, a disaster is a hazard that results from natural causes or human intervention and whose negative impacts are large-scale. This describes the pestilence about which the priest of Zeus talks to Theban King Oedipus in the play's beginning. For example, livestock are ailing, crops are failing, and children die before birth or shortly thereafter.
