EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the devastating impact of measles on a young child in the 18th century. The color illustration from William Buchan's 'Domestic Medicine' serves as a stark reminder of the importance of medical advancements throughout history. In the 1780s, when this image was created, measles was a common and often deadly disease among children. The lack of effective treatments meant that many young lives were lost to this highly contagious illness. The intricate details in this illustration highlight not only the physical symptoms of measles but also the emotional toll it took on families. The child's pained expression and red rash serve as a powerful visual representation of the suffering caused by this disease. As we look back on this piece of medical history, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of understanding and treating illnesses like measles. Thanks to advancements in science and medicine, diseases that once posed significant threats to public health are now preventable through vaccines. This print serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of continued research and innovation in healthcare. It is a testament to both the progress we have made and the challenges that still lie ahead in our ongoing fight against infectious diseases.
