The History Chicks : A Women's History Podcast

CHAPTER

'Typhoid'

She was locked in a mostly empty room at willard parker hospital with very little more than just a chamber pot and a bed. Doctor soper showed up and found her curiously unco operative. He says, we know you have caused cases of typhoid. We know you didn't mean to, but surely you must accept now that you've done so. People have died. You have killed them. And he nto her that she didn't wash her hands thoroughly enough after she went potty. But the thing is, it would be hard to wash your hands thoroughly enough. No one does in restaurants now, i'm guessing. So enjoy the salad.
