DescriptionSnow-cholera-map-1.jpg |
Original map made by John Snow in 1854. Cholera cases are highlighted in black, showing the clusters of cholera cases (indicated by stacked rectangles) in the London epidemic of 1854. The map was created in order to better understand the pattern of cholera spread in the 1854 Broad Street cholera outbreak, which Snow would use as an example of how cholera spread via the fecal-oral route through water systems as opposed to the miasma theory of disease spread. The contaminated pump is located at the intersection of Broad Street and Cambridge Street (now Lexington Street), running into Little Windmill Street. The map marks an important part of the development of epidemiology as a field, and of disease mapping as a whole. |
