[St. Corona-a patron saint against pandemics? : A short essay on the history of medicine and urology]. Urologe A. 2020 May 04;: Authors: Moll FH, Schwarzburger MI Abstract The knowledge of hagiography and hagiotherapy still plays an important role in the history of science, especially when focusing on specific aspects of history. While knowledge about St. Liborius persists in urology, knowledge about patron saints for pandemics, especially those who were called upon to treat venereal diseases, has diminished due to the association with nonappropriate sexual behavior.
