Resumo de Recurso
Public Health 1350-Present
Important People
John Snow
Noticed lots of deaths near one pump (bad water)
Noticed less deaths (from cholera where people drunk beer
Cholera caused by dirty water
Not miasma
Edwin Chadwick
govt. Should provide clean water + remove sewage and rubbish
LAISSEZ- FAIRE--govt. shouldn't interfere with ordinary lives and business
Dirty party protested
Middle classes didn't want to give money to poor
Water companies objected as they thought it would reduce their profits
critized
In 1842 he published the results of his survey of housing conditions in town called "the sanitary conditions of the Labouring party"
Rather than paying for sick people in workhouses to be supported
Thought it was cheaper if local taxes were used to improve housing + hygeine
Why govt. took notice of water
govt. collected statistics on births, marriages and deaths; William Farr studied these + saw death rates were higher in towns/cities than in villiages
Snow proved link between Cholera + dirty water
Pasteur's germ theory showed how disease spread + why hygiene is important
The Great Stink
1858
Very hot. Thames was low - Exposed sewage stunk badly!
Parliament couldn't stand it - so persuaded Metropoliton Board of Works to put forward ideas of Joseph Bazalgette
Built new sewer system in London. Took 7 years.
By 1865, London had 1,300 miles of sewers.
1350-1750
Problems faced
Indoors people used chamber pots and poured waste on streets/drains
People couldn't afford a water closet to wash away the sewage
Government didn't want to pay to remove waste off the streets
Health risks- as sanitation was bad
especially when sewers overflowed into rivers.
What public health measures already in place
Some richer people have own latrines which ran into cesspit.
Have to pay to have cesspits emptied
Some local authorities paid for piped water supplies and sewer systems
Some medieval's kept streets clean to stop disease
Some towns had public latrines (toilets)
Some towns had public baths (stews) where people bathed together in big wooden tubs
It is the law to keep streets clean - or else fined.
Was there much improvement?
govt. didn't get involved as not very wealthy
As more wealthy made improvements
Some big cities in the UK started to care more about water + started to improve it
Not really but it was a start
