3.How were people infected with the virus of cholera
Moreover, Snow was later able to show a link between other cases of cholera and the different water companies in London.
The truth was that the water from the Broad Street pump had been infected by waste. Some companies sold water from the River Thames that was polluted by raw waste.
The people who drank this water were much more likely to get cholera than those who drank pure or boiled water.
