Abstract: On December 24, 1675, Christmas Eve, the physician Dr Giacomo Cassia was called by a prosperous Valletta merchant of textiles Matteo Bonnici, to attend to his sick 11-year-old daughter who had suddenly fallen ill with a high fever. This is the beginning of Malta’s worst plague outbreak in 1675.
