Image description

Diseases, Cholera Brass amulet designed to protect against cholera, French, 1820-1880. This amulet is inscribed on the reverse with the words ïSt Roch preservez nous du cholera (ïSt Roch, preserve us from cholera). St Roch (d 1327) was often invoked against the Plague and other diseases. Cholera was a highly infectious, and often fatal, disease which spread rapidly in the industrial towns of 19th century Europe. It caused chronic diahorrea, vomiting, cramps and dehydration, and after the first symptoms appeared, death could take place within a day. The disease spread because of poor sanitation and was only eradicated after new public health legislation was introduced and public hygiene improved. ©SSPL/Science Museum
