Prince Pedro catches roundworms
Letter from Carlota Joaquina to her husband King João VI, sent from Queluz on 15 April 1804:

Pedro was wracked with abdominal pains after having spent the night with a lot of coughing and the physicians resolved not to purge him as he still had a good appetite,… suspecting that he has roundworms.
