EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print captures a scene inside the Smallpox Hospital in Britain in 1871. The ward is filled with patients suffering from this deadly and highly contagious disease, their faces marked by the telltale pustules that characterize smallpox. The history of smallpox is a dark chapter in medical history, as it ravaged populations around the world for centuries before finally being eradicated through vaccination efforts.
The hospital itself, located in Hampstead, served as a place of isolation and treatment for those afflicted with smallpox. It was a grim reminder of the devastating impact that infectious diseases could have on communities during this time period. The stark surroundings and somber expressions of the patients convey the gravity of their situation and the fear that must have permeated every corner of the ward.
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library provides a glimpse into a moment in medical history when smallpox was still a major threat to public health. It serves as a poignant reminder of how far we have come in terms of understanding and combating infectious diseases, while also highlighting the importance of continued vigilance against potential outbreaks in our modern world.
