EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historical photograph from 1892, linen is being inspected and left with customs officers for disinfection at the port of Hamburg, Germany. The year marks the arrival of cholera in Europe after its spread from North-east India towards the east coast of Africa. The disease, which had reached Europe within a couple of years, was known to be highly contagious and could spread rapidly through contaminated water and unsanitary conditions. Travel played a large part in the dissemination of cholera, as the disease could easily be carried by infected individuals or goods. In response to this public health threat, strict measures were taken to prevent the spread of the disease within European borders. This photograph shows one such precaution, as linens imported from infected regions were required to undergo disinfection before being allowed entry into the country. The nineteenth century was a time of significant globalization, with increased trade and travel between different parts of the world. However, this also meant that diseases could spread more easily than ever before. Cholera was just one of many diseases that posed a threat to public health during this era. This photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of public health measures in preventing the spread of infectious diseases, even in the face of globalization and increased travel. The image is a valuable historical document, showcasing the precautions taken during the cholera outbreak in Hamburg in 1892. It is a poignant reminder of the efforts made to contain the disease and protect public health during a time when the world was more interconnected than ever before. This photograph is from the Mary Evans Picture Library and is a testament to the rich historical record that exists regarding the history of public health and disease control.
