Jean-Jacques Manget

With Théophile Bonet, he is considered one of the "great compilers" of knowledge in the areas of medicine, surgery and pharmacology.

He coined the term based on his observation of widespread tiny lesions like millet seeds in the liver, lungs, spleen, and mesentery.

[5] Manget reported that the exotic new drug ipecac had been effectively used in the treatment of plague in Marseille.

[7] "All People and all Countries wishing to remain in a perfect state of health must pay continuous attention to what takes place among their neighbors.

They must prohibit all inhabitants of both provinces, the infected and the healthy, from engaging in any sort of communication in the future, under any pretext, on pain of death: and for this decree to be religiously observed it will be important to post well-armed Soldiers on the borders, and to build gallows on all public roads; either to intimidate those who will want to leave the infected country or to hang on the spot those who will have defied the prohibition.
