EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Universal Images Group (UIG) takes us back to the year 1900, where an advertisement for a cure for Malaria was issued by the Mississippi State Board of Health. In this striking vertical composition, we are transported to a time when illness and danger lurked in every corner. The poster prominently displays an Anopheles mosquito, known as the carrier of this debilitating disease. Its presence serves as a warning sign, emphasizing the urgent need for action against Malaria. The western script used in the advertisement reflects American culture at that time and reminds us of how healthcare and medicine were evolving. To combat Malaria's grip on society, adults were prescribed a standard treatment involving Quinine Sulphate. The dosage required taking 10 grains three times daily for three days, followed by 10 grains every night for eight weeks. This remedy aimed to alleviate symptoms and eradicate the parasite causing this widespread ailment. As we gaze upon this historical artifact devoid of people but rich with meaning, it transports us to an era where medical advancements were crucial in combating deadly diseases like Malaria. It serves as a reminder of our progress in healthcare while acknowledging our past struggles with infectious illnesses
