EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print from Mary Evans Picture Library depicts a diagram of a new-born baby with inherited syphilis, born in 1883. The image serves as a stark reminder of the devastating effects of this once rampant disease on innocent children. Syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum, can be passed from mother to child during pregnancy or childbirth if left untreated.
Inherited syphilis, also known as congenital syphilis, can result in severe health complications for newborns including deformities, blindness, deafness, and even death. This diagram illustrates the physical manifestations of the disease on an infant's body, highlighting the importance of early detection and treatment to prevent such tragic outcomes.
Through medical advancements and public health initiatives, cases of congenital syphilis have significantly decreased over time. However, this image serves as a poignant reminder of the impact that infectious diseases like syphilis have had on generations past.
As we reflect on this historical photograph, let us remember the importance of education and prevention in combating diseases that affect vulnerable populations such as infants. May we continue to strive for better healthcare practices and access for all individuals to ensure a healthier future for our children.
