Infantum1

• Cholera infantum , Fairbanks, Raue's Rec. (legatum.sk)

19th-century10

• Medical journals and other sources do not show evidence that cholera occurred in Haiti before 2010, despite the devastating effect of this disease in the Caribbean region in the 19th century. (cdc.gov)
• Almost 2 centuries of cholera research such as John Snow's famous environmental detective work on cholera in mid 19th century England ( 3 ) helped to found the field of epidemiology. (cdc.gov)
• Although it is difficult to confirm the absence of a disease in an earlier era, this report explores textual evidence for the immunologic status of persons to cholera in Haiti reported in scientific journals and lay journalism sources from the 19th century. (cdc.gov)
• It also considers the reasons that epidemic cholera failed to occur in Haiti in the 19th century even though it did affect many neighboring environments, including the Dominican Republic. (cdc.gov)
• There is no published source that identifies all Caribbean islands affected by cholera epidemics in the 19th century. (cdc.gov)
• In the field of 20th-century and 21st-century research, an article in 1985 by Kiple comes the closest to describing the effect of cholera across the 19th-century Caribbean. (cdc.gov)
• Higman notes that basic public health measures were prompted by cholera epidemics in the British Caribbean in the 19th century but that they emerged from "a maze of environmental mystery" ( 7 ). (cdc.gov)
• Vega Lugo provides a recent study of cholera in 19th-century Puerto Rico ( 8 ). (cdc.gov)
• The third cholera pandemic (1846-1860) was the third major outbreak of cholera originating in India in the 19th century that reached far beyond its borders, which researchers at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) believe may have started as early as 1837 and lasted until 1863. (wikipedia.org)
• Pavel Fedotov 's painting shows a death from cholera in the mid-19th century. (wikipedia.org)

Epidemic2

• The uncertainty in newspapers and nongovernmental organizations over whether Haiti had experienced cholera during the 20th century, a period when there was no epidemic cholera in the Caribbean islands, reflects the historically uneven documentation of cholera epidemiology in different regions. (cdc.gov)
• The cholera epidemic in Russia that started in 1847 would last until 1851, killing over one million people. (wikipedia.org)

Epidemics1

• We provide historical accounts of the presence and spread of cholera epidemics in Caribbean islands. (cdc.gov)

Outbreak4

• After the 1854 Broad Street cholera outbreak he had mapped the cases of cholera in the Soho area in London, and noted a cluster of cases near a water pump in one neighborhood. (wikipedia.org)
• Snow was a founding member of the Epidemiological Society of London , formed in response to a cholera outbreak in 1849, and he is considered one of the fathers of epidemiology . (wikipedia.org)
• [15] In Vietnam, cholera outbreak in 1849 killed estimatedly from 800,000 to one million people (8-10% of the kingdom's 1847 population). (wikipedia.org)
• [16] In Siam, cholera outbreak which started from Penang before passing to Pattani, Songkla, Samut Prakarn, Bangkok, Pathum Thani, Phitsanuloke and Ang Sila from June to July 1849 had killed at least 5,457 people in Bangkok and the estimated number of death from cholera outbreak varied from 15000 to 40000 people. (wikipedia.org)

200,0001

• In assessing Cuba, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, and St. Thomas, Kiple proposed that 200,000 deaths from cholera in the Caribbean would not be unrealistic, although a total figure would have to be "considerably higher as a number of islands have not been included in this survey" ( 6 ). (cdc.gov)

Plague1

• It's revealing that a great deal of the discussion surrounding the early experiences with cholera revolved around the question of whether this was, in fact, the return of the plague. (yale.edu)

Taylor1

• Diagnosed as suffering from "cholera morbus" by his physicians, Taylor ate slivers of ice for relief until his body began rejecting fluids. (millercenter.org)

Diseases1

• There are accounts of diseases in various writings that are suggestive of cholera well before the nineteenth century. (yale.edu)

Victims1

• The area that we live in was where cholera made the greatest number of victims. (missiongoodshepherd.org)

Subject1

• We can continue with our subject of Asiatic cholera. (yale.edu)

Disease7

• However, until 2011, there was no comprehensive historical record of cholera in Africa ( 4 ), despite its crucial status as a piece of the global disease puzzle. (cdc.gov)
• Asiatic cholera was the most dreaded disease of the nineteenth century. (yale.edu)
• One reason for the intense fear provoked by the disease was its symptoms: not only did cholera exact a degrading and painful toll on the human body, it also struck suddenly, and was capable of reducing the seemingly healthy in a period of hours. (yale.edu)
• This correspondence qualifies it as an archetypical disease of poverty, and implicated cholera in the larger nineteenth-century political anxiety over the "social question. (yale.edu)
• And Asiatic cholera is a good example of what we might - though let's be mindful, it would be historically anachronistic - we might call it a great emerging disease of the nineteenth century. (yale.edu)
• Cholera for the nineteenth century was something new, something never before experienced, and that helps to explain a good part of the reaction to the populations that were first afflicted by it, as the "great cholera," we should remember, was the great feared disease of the nineteenth century. (yale.edu)
• If any gentleman or lady has hydrophobia, inflammation of the lungs, cholera morbus, or any other disease ever so dangerous, he or she has nothing to do but to take either the Vegetable Pills, or the Pills and Ointment, or Life Pills, whichever they please, and they will certainly be cured. (victorianlondon.org)

Time1

• Yet, as recently as July 2011, the Boston Globe claimed that "Cholera appeared in Haiti last year for the first time since the 1960s" ( 2 ), implying that cholera had occurred in Haiti in the 20th century. (cdc.gov)

Spread4

• Clustered populations, regular influx of new persons, and close quarters of barracks living contributed to spread of cholera in other Caribbean locations. (cdc.gov)
• The second cholera pandemic spread from India, surging outward to all of Europe and northern Africa, then crossing the Atlantic to Canada and the United States, spreading to Mexico and the Caribbean. (wikipedia.org)
• Cholera, believed spread from Irish immigrant ship(s) from England to the United States , spread throughout the Mississippi river system , killing over 4,500 in St. Louis [11] and over 3,000 in New Orleans . (wikipedia.org)
• In 1852, cholera spread east to Indonesia, and later was carried to China and Japan in 1854. (wikipedia.org)

Major3

• A second major reason for the disease's significance was its overwhelming predilection for the poor: transmitted through the oral ingestion of fecal matter, cholera was intimately associated with poor diets and unsanitary living conditions. (yale.edu)
• [10] In 1849, cholera claimed 5,308 lives in the major port city of Liverpool , England , an embarkation point for immigrants to North America, and 1,834 in Hull , England. (wikipedia.org)
• [7] Japan suffered at least seven major outbreaks of cholera between 1858 and 1902. (wikipedia.org)
