Excerpt from How to Avoid Infection
It was a common saying of sanitarians of years ago that for every death from typhoid fever some one ought to be hung. The meaning was, that, as this disease is So often due to a polluted water supply, defective sewerage, or a foul privy, the city councilman, the health officer, or the landlord, responsible for the conditions, should swing on the gallows for his neglect. In those days it never occurred to any one that blame attached to the victim. While there is some truth in the old adage, as there often is in common sayings, it is more in accord with present day knowledge and modern conditions to say that if a man has typhoid fever it is his own just punishment for sanitary sins.
