John Snow Defeats 'King Cholera'

John Snow was a famous doctor in London — so expert, indeed, that he attended Queen Victoria as her personal physician. But he became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. Cholera was the deadly disease of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. Every time it broke out, thousands of people would die in panic. John Snow wanted to face this challenge and solve the problem. He knew that cholera would never be controlled until its cause was found.
