Struggle & Survival

This is the story of how Hamilton experienced epidemics in the 19th and 20th Centuries. There was struggle and survival. There was loss but also legacy. Most microbes are perfectly harmless and we go about our daily business not even knowing they are there. Some are even essential for our survival. But a handful can cause epidemics and pandemics. Across time, they have had profound impacts on human societies.
