| Beschreibung: | Abstract ; From 1914-1918 infectious diseases, such as typhus, recurrent fever, dysentery, malaria, etc., took advantage of the social disruption caused by a world at war. More Ottoman soldiers perished from the deadly effects of microbes and bacteria than from bullets and bombs. By outlining the causes, geographical distribution, and mortalities from the most prevalent infectious diseases in the Ottoman context, this article highlights not only the destructive effects of infectious diseases, but also their formative consequences in terms of the state’s responses to improve public health and sanitation for soldiers and civilians alike. ; SeriesInformation ; 1914-1918-Online International Encyclopedia of the First World War ; SeriesInformation ; 1914-1918-Online International Encyclopedia of the First World War |
