<p>Seemingly but the article actually says</p>
<p> </p>

<p> Though the map suggests the areas around Milan, Krakow, and the Spain-France border were unaffected, that's not actually true. It's just that compared with the staggering devastation suffered by the rest of Europe, those areas experienced hardly any deaths at all.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But that doesn't mean they <em>objectively</em> suffered a small number of deaths: According to Rutgers historian <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://books.google.com/books?id=oK4HTBcdSJsC&printsec=frontcover&dq=robert+gottfried&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjTiIH4k4_MAhXLbT4KHZLZAEMQ6wEIHTAA#v=onepage&q=milan&f=false'>Robert Gottfried</a>, the death rate in Milan was "only" 15 percent, and <strong>"only" around 25 percent in modern Poland</strong>. In other words, the rest of Europe was hit so badly that losing 15 percent of your population wasn't even enough to put a city on the map.</p>

<p>During Monica Lewinsky's first day at The Whitehouse, President Clinton hits the intercom and asks her to come and help him with a clock.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>She walks in and finds Bill with his pants around his ankles, raring to go.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>"Mr President! That isn't a clock!"</p>
