1592–1593 London Plague
Wikipedia
During this period, at least 15,000 people died of plague within the City of London and another 4,900 died of plague in the surrounding parishes. [1] Contents 1 London in 1592 2 Plague activity in England 3 The plague in London 3.1 1592 3.2 1593 4 References London in 1592 [ edit ] London in 1592 was a partially-walled city of 150,000 people made of the City of London and its surrounding parishes, called liberties, just outside the walls. ... Due to increasing economic and food shortages, disorder had grown among the underclasses in the city and beyond whom moralist authorities increasingly struggled to govern. [2] A large and impoverished population made up the surrounding liberties, which became the first communities to be hit severely by the plague. [3] Plague activity in England [ edit ] Plague had been present in England since the Black Death, infecting various fauna in the countryside, and known as plague since the 15th century. [4] Occasionally Yersinia pestis was transmitted to human society by infectious contact with the fleas of wild animals, with disastrous results for trade, farming, and social life. [5] [6] Increasing plague activity along England's southern and eastern coasts appeared during the late 1580s to early 90s. ... On 7 September, soldiers marching from England's north to embark on foreign campaigns were rerouted around the city due to concerns about infection, [1] [6] and by the 21st at least 35 parishes were "infeckted" with plague. [8] A group transporting the spoils of a Spanish carrack from Dartmouth couldn't get further than Greenwich due to the outbreak in London and news of the plague had spread regionally. [1] London's theaters, which had been temporarily closed by city authorities since a riot in June, had their shutdown orders extended to 29 December by the government. [9] [10] Members of the aristocratic class sensed danger as the disease continued to spread and fled the city: "The plague is so sore that none of worth stay about these places" remarked one contemporary. [11] In November, London's College of Physicians convened a meeting to discuss the "insolent and illicit practice" of London's unlicensed medical physicians with the intention to "summon them all" before the college for quackery. [12] Queen Elizabeth's royal court also decided not to host the annual Accession Day tilt celebrations for the month due to the possibility of contagion at the royal court. [13] Some records of the plague were copied by John Stow during his own research in the 17th century and have survived time despite the original documents being lost. [14] Around 2,000 Londoners died of plague between August 1592 and January 1593. ... Poorer, insanitary parishes and neighborhoods were located near the city wall and River Thames [17] while the Fleet Ditch area of London, around Fleet Prison , became the most heavily infected part of the city. ... Government letters indicated that the plague was "very hot" in London by 12 June and that the queen's royal court "was out in places, and a great part of the household is cut off." [14] [11] By August Queen Elizabeth's royal court had evacuated to Windsor Castle in order to escape the increasingly dangerous outbreak in London. The city's sugar refineries continued their business unabated [11] even though public houses and theaters remained closed on government orders to halt the spread of infection. [18] Alarm was raised at Windsor by the death of Queen Elizabeth's chambermaid Lady Scrope from plague on the 21 August within the castle, which almost sent the royal court fleeing a second time. [19] But the government remained at Windsor Castle through November where Queen Elizabeth hosted her tilt celebrations. [13] References [ edit ] ^ a b c d e Creighton, Charles (November 1891).

Rickettsialpox
Wikipedia
Rickettsialpox Rickettsialpox lesion Specialty Infectious disease Prognosis Resolves in 2-3 weeks without treatment Rickettsialpox is a mite-borne infectious illness caused by bacteria of the genus Rickettsia ( Rickettsia akari ). [1] Physician Robert Huebner and self-trained entomologist Charles Pomerantz played major roles in identifying the cause of the disease after an outbreak in 1946 in a New York City apartment complex, documented in "The Alerting of Mr. ... History [ edit ] The initial outbreak of the disease took place in the Regency Park complex which had 69 apartment units organized in three groups each three stories in height, located in Kew Gardens , in the New York City borough of Queens . Physicians who had seen patients starting in early 1946 had assumed that they were dealing with an atypical form of chickenpox , but the realization was made that they were dealing with a localized epidemic of unknown origins starting in the summer of that year. ... Garbage disposed of through incinerator chutes was to be burned on a daily basis, with the ashes carted off by the New York City Department of Sanitation . Due to labor shortages, the material was not burned regularly, leaving ample food for the rodents. ... The building operators were told to ensure that the incinerators were fired on a regular basis to ensure that food available to the mice that harbored the disease was eliminated as quickly and thoroughly as possible. [5] Pest control measures were undertaken through the New York City Department of Health and its commissioner Israel Weinstein to eliminate the mice in and around the buildings with the cooperation of property owners. [7] Another 20 cases of rickettsialpox were discovered elsewhere in New York City during the investigation of the Queens outbreak, including 10 cases found in an apartment building in the Bronx that had originally been diagnosed as atypical chickenpox. Mice were found in the basement of this building, as well as mites belonging to the same class found in Queens. [5] In addition to the initial cases from the first outbreak in Queens, over 500 cases of the disease were diagnosed in New York City from 1947 to 1951.

Bubonic Plague
Wikipedia
One example is the use of Sulfurozador, a fumigation chemical used to eradicate the pest that spread the bubonic plague, in Buenos Aires, Argentina during the early 18th century. [22] Targeted chemoprophylaxis , sanitation , and vector control also played a role in controlling the 2003 Oran outbreak of the bubonic plague. [23] Another mean of prevention in large European cities was a city-wide quarantine to not only limit interaction with people that were infected, but also to limit the interaction with the infected rats. [24] Treatment Several classes of antibiotics are effective in treating bubonic plague. ... In the spring of 542, the plague arrived in Constantinople, working its way from port city to port city and spreading around the Mediterranean Sea , later migrating inland eastward into Asia Minor and west into Greece and Italy. ... Daily water-traffic with the nearby city of Hong Kong rapidly spread the plague there, killing over 2,400 within two months during the 1894 Hong Kong plague . [49] Also known as the modern pandemic, the third pandemic spread the disease to port cities throughout the world in the second half of the 19th century and the early 20th century via shipping routes. [50] The plague infected people in Chinatown in San Francisco from 1900 to 1904, [51] and in the nearby locales of Oakland and the East Bay again from 1907 to 1909.

Blastomycosis
Wikipedia
In Ontario, Canada, considering both endemic and non-endemic areas, the overall incidence is around 0.3 cases per 100,000; northern Ontario, mostly endemic, has 2.44 per 100,000. [20] Manitoba is calculated at 0.62 cases per 100,000. [16] Remarkably higher incidences were shown for the Kenora, Ontario region: 117 per 100,000 overall, with aboriginal reserve communities experiencing 404.9 per 100,000. [17] In the United States, the incidence of blastomycosis is similarly high in hyperendemic areas. For example, the city of Eagle River, Vilas County, Wisconsin, which has an incidence rate of 101.3 per 100,000; the county as a whole has been shown in two successive studies to have an incidence of ca. 40 cases per 100,000. [26] An incidence of 277 per 100,000 was roughly calculated based on 9 cases seen in a Wisconsin aboriginal reservation during a time in which extensive excavation was done for new housing construction. [27] The new case rates are greater in northern states such as Wisconsin , where from 1986 to 1995 there were 1.4 cases per 100,000 people. [28] The study of outbreaks as well as trends in individual cases of blastomycosis has clarified a number of important matters. ... Human blastomycosis is primarily associated with forested areas and open watersheds; [12] [29] [30] [31] It primarily affects otherwise healthy, vigorous people, mostly middle-aged, [32] who acquire the disease while working or undertaking recreational activities in sites conventionally considered clean, healthy and in many cases beautiful. [12] [23] Repeatedly associated activities include hunting, especially raccoon hunting, [33] where accompanying dogs also tend to be affected, as well as working with wood or plant material in forested or riparian areas, [12] [34] involvement in forestry in highly endemic areas, [35] excavation, [26] fishing [32] [36] and possibly gardening and trapping. [17] [26] Urban infections [ edit ] There is also a developing profile of urban and other domestic blastomycosis cases, beginning with an outbreak tentatively attributed to construction dust in Westmont, Illinois . [37] The city of Rockford, Illinois , was also documented as a hyperendemic area based on incidence rates as high as 6.67 per 100,000 population for some areas of the city. Though proximity to open watersheds was linked to incidence in some areas, [31] suggesting that outdoor activity within the city may be connected to many cases, there is also an increasing body of evidence that even the interiors of buildings may be risk areas.
