Diseases and Stuff in the early 1900's (really good site!)
Do you think that diseases back then were worse than now? Well, I have asked someone who was there back then, my grandfather. He told me all I wanted to know about the illnesses. So here are the questions and some of the answers I got.· What type of diseases were there when you were a kid?Answer: T.B., Poleo, Smallpox, Chickenpox, and Measles· How would you cure some diseases back then?Answer: I never had any of these problems so I don”Ēt know!· Were diseases really bad? If so, why?Answer: Yes. If they were not cured for you can die. · If you caught a real bad disease, what are the percents of you surviving a bad injury or death?Answer: About 90%.· Are there still diseases from back then that are still here now? If so which ones?Answer: Yes, there are still T.B., smallpox, chickenpox, and measles.· Do you think diseases back then were worse than ones now?Answer: No, I think they are just the same.· Were diseases a big problem back then?Answer: Yes they were.Ok, now you have an insider on diseases back then. It”Ēs sort of scary to know that you know that there were diseases back then that are still here now. I don”Ēt really like the sound of having any diseases. Well, it”Ēs a fact of life.
