Their report did not examine any victims and was more of an academic resource than a report on the situation of the Plague.

The report reflected the periods scholastic structure of teaching, starting with four classic medical sources: Aristotle, Hippocrates, Galen, and Persian Avicenna. This was the most influential medical document of its time and it taught to fumigate the air (or physically move).
