The Mad Dog Epidemic - A Glimpse into the Chaos of 1886 New York City
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This wood engraving from a contemporary American newspaper takes us back to the chilling scene on an uptown avenue in Manhattan, January 1886. The image captures the sheer panic and fear that gripped the city during the rabies epidemic. In this snapshot of chaos, we witness a frantic chase down a bustling street. A young girl, accompanied by her sister and brother, is running for their lives as an insane dog infected with hydrophobia lunges towards them. The mother desperately tries to shield her children from danger while seeking refuge on a nearby staircase. The streets are teeming with terrified residents who have become victims of this relentless epidemic. Women clutch their children tightly, seeking safety from these rabid creatures that roam freely through once peaceful neighborhoods. Meanwhile, members of the NYPD valiantly attempt to control the situation and protect citizens from harm's way. With medicine yet to find its footing against this deadly illness, every encounter with these mad dogs becomes a life-or-death struggle. This powerful image serves as a haunting reminder of how swiftly fear can spread within communities when faced with an uncontrollable threat. It stands as a testament to both human resilience and our ongoing battle against infectious diseases throughout history.
