Narration
Cholera used to be one of the most feared diseases in the world, until a
British doctor, John Snow, showed how it could be overcome. This illness causes severe diarrhea, dehydration, and even death. In the early
19th century, when an outbreak of cholera hit Europe, millions of people died from the disease. As a young doctor, John Snow became frustrated because no one knew how to prevent or treat cholera. In time, he rose to become a famous doctor, and even attended to Queen Victoria when she gave birth. However, he never lost his desire to destroy cholera once and for all.

Though being famous, he was still devoted to defeating “King Cholera”
In general, doctors in those days had two contradictory theories to explain how cholera spread. One theory was that bad air caused the disease. Another was that cholera was caused by an infection from germs in food or water. Snow subscribed to the second theory. It was correct, but he still needed proof. Consequently, when an outbreak of cholera hit London in 1854, Snow began to investigate. He discovered that in two particular streets the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why.
1.What happened in 1854
2.How many people died in 10 days
Cholera outbreak hit London.
500
ask a question
Which theory is correct
Snow began by marking on a map the exactplaces where all those who died had lived. There were multiple deaths near the water pump in Broad Street (especially house numbers 16, 37, 38, and 40). However, some households (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street, and 8 and 9 Cambridge Street) had had no deaths. These people worked in the pub at 7 Cambridge Street. They had been given free beer, and so had not drunk the water from the pump. Snow suspected that the water pump was to blame. What is more, in another part of London, a woman and her daughter had died of cholera after moving away from Broad Street. It seemed that the woman liked the water from the pump so much that she had it delivered to her house every day. As a result of this evidence, John Snow was able to announce that the pump water carried cholera germs. Accordingly, he had the handle of the pump removed so that it could not be used. Through this intervention, the disease was stopped in its tracks.
collect data
Mark information on a map to find out where people died or did not die.
1.Why is there no death at No. 20 and 21 Broad Street as well as at No. 8 and 9 Cambridge Street
These families had not drunk the water from the Broad Street pump.
2.Why did John Snow have the handle of the pump removed
He had the handle of the pump removed so that it could not be used
The truth was that the water from the Broad Street pump had been infected by waste.Moreover, Snow was later able to show a link between other cases of cholera and the different water companies in London. Some companies sold water from the RiverThames 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.
What caused the outbreak of cholera in London in 1854
Water companies sold water from the River Thames that was polluted by raw waste, causing people who drank this water to get cholera.
find supporting evidence
Find other evidence to confirm the conclusion.
Through Snow's tireless efforts, water companies began to sell clean water, and the threat of cholera around the world saw a substantial decrease. However, cholera is still a problem. Each year, millions of people around the world get cholera and many diefrom it. Fortunately, we now know how to prevent cholera, thanks to the work of JohnSnow. Moreover, in his use of maps and statistics, Snow transformed the way scientists study diseases. For this reason, Snow is considered the father of modern epidemiology.
What contributions did John Snow make
1) Water companies began to sell clean water.
2) The threat of cholera around the world decreased.
3) He helped people know how to prevent cholera.
4) Snow transformed the way scientists study diseases.
draw a conclusion
The water is to blame. The source of all drinking water should be examined so that it is safe.
multiple deaths
happened here.
No death happened here.
The water from the pump
was to blame.
Public house
Clue: free beer from public house
Result:
The water came from the river which had been polluted by the dirty water from London.
