This book was written in 2006 about a London cholera epidemic in the 1850s. This paragraph really brings home the fact there were fake news types way back then, too, trying to cure cholera with chorine and fresh air. I have to give those people back then a little break because we didn’t even have the science to see the cholera virus under a microscope - unlike today when we can figure out a vaccine within six months of a pandemic breakout but some people are still advocating superstition and anecdotal remedies. So, yeah, history repeats itself.
