Description
Epidemics of fevers, smallpox, cholera and the plague have afflicted societies intermittently with the force of a natural disaster,killing a large number of people. Epidemics entail not only the problem of mortality, but also of the collapse of administrative structures, exodus from the cities and breakdown of trade and agriculture. As the biggest scourges in history, epidemics have also shaped the world around, influencing theological, political and social thought over time.
