Original Note:
Jews poisoning wells is an Antisemitic myth. Jews were scapegoated during the pandemic, but there is no evidence, whatsoever, supporting these accusations. The myth led to violent persecution and has been thoroughly debunked by historians: https://gnasherjew.com/black-death-the-lie-of-the-poisoned-wells https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/bones-found-in-medieval-well-likely-belong-to-victims-of-anti-semitic-massacre-180980692/
