“In times of stress and danger such as come about as the result of an epidemic, many tragic and cruel phases of human nature
are brought out, as well as many brave and unselfish ones.” — William Crawford Gorgas, in "Sanitation In Panama"

“If you want to deal with an epidemic - crime or health - the smartest and most effective and cheapest way
to deal with it is prevention first.” — Kamala Harris, U.S. Senator from California

“In spite of the advances of medicine, deathly epidemics are more menacing than ever before.” — Christian de Duve

“Evil is relatively rare. Ignorance is epidemic.” — Jon Stewart, TV talk show host

Famous historical epidemics include:
  • several plagues in the 'Moses in Egypt' legend;
  • the Plague of Athens [429-426 BCE] was the first recorded by a witness, the statesman Thucydides;
  • the Plague of Justinian in 6th Century AD;
  • the Black Death/Plague (circa 1350 AD);
  • the Great Plague of London (circa 1665);
  • the Columbian Exchange, 1492-1550;
  • the American Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1793;
  • the Spanish influenza pandemic of 1918;
  • and the several influenza epidemics of the XXth and XXIst Century.

              Long-standing diseases with occasional outbreaks include: cholera, dengue fever, diphtheria, malaria, measles, meningitis, polio, small pox, syphilis, tuberculosis, typhus, yellow fever, and the more-recent HIV/AIDS (ongoing since 1982).

              Fiction about epidemics go back at least to 1826; silent films about epidemics go back at least to 1918. Production of movies about the current Wuhan coronavirus pandemic are delayed because so many countries are still in lock-down mode. {NOTE: The proprietor of this online bookstore avoids the silliness of the vampire and zombie genres, but here has reluctantly included several movies that feature some viral cause of their existence.}
