More dysentery also… like a LOT more dysentery. So much so that people often believed their soul exists in their lower abdomen because when you feel pain there you die shortly after.
Wow that’s a lot of dysentery.
Sorry your point lacks proper context based on reality.
“Oh, you’re mad that you have to work 12/7 to stay alive? Well, have you considered that peasants didn’t have good healthcare?!? Hah, I bet you didn’t… Wait, you can’t afford healthcare either?..well, you’ll suffer and die from a modern illness rather than shitting yourself so you still aren’t allowed to complain! It’s all perfect now!”
That’s really a western Europe thing and American thing. Even then no where near as much as you’re suggesting, not for the last 10k years or so at least. Beer/wine taking over and replacing water drinking unironically eliminated most of that, and in other cultures sanitation prevented it. English serfs had a lot of dysentery though, since they were too stupid to use Roman infrastructure.

Well we could argue your whole comment lacks connection to the original post

So you’re not really a serf if you’ve got plumbing? The labor relationship with your employers isn’t the issue?
