British Leaders: John Snow, Edwin Chadwick and William Henry Beveridge

We will continue to investigate the cause of the cholera epidemic even after stopping the well pump of Broad Street Snow. After collecting information on the snow, he published an illustration of a point diagram showing the population of cholera around the pump; he also provided statistics showing the relationship between water quality and cholera cases. John Snow proved that Southwark and Vauxhall water companies pumped water from the River Thames and sent it to dwellers around London as drinking water.

Edwin · Chadwick (1800 - 1890) is accredited for his work in the reform of poverty law. Edwin · Chadwick was appointed by the government to investigate and study current medical facilities. Chadwick wrote a report outlining the results of his research entitled "Hygiene of the Labor Population" announced in 1842. In his report, Chadwick believes that disease is directly related to living conditions. After the report was announced, new measures were taken to promote safe disposal of human waste and garbage. Chadwick believes that inadequate hygiene environments cause disease

• 1800 - 1900: Three very important events have occurred. In 1842, Edwin · Chadwick in the UK created the "General Report on the Health Condition of the Working Population in the UK". This is considered one of the most important public health documents. The report spurred similar investigation in the United States. In 1854, British John Snow conducted an analysis to determine that polluted water in London is the cause of the London cholera epidemic. This discovery establishes a link between environment and disease. According to Chadwick 's report and Snow' s activities, in 1850, Rem Elshatak formulated the State Public Health Act which was the basis for public health activities.

British physician John Snow helps improve the health of the world through simple infographic. When Snow drew cholera's death in London in 1854, he eventually discovered that at least one fatal illness was associated with contaminated water. According to Snow's infographic it is possible that the majority of fatalities caused by cholera are related to water pumps. Nightingale issued even the 1859 paper titled "Russia's Contribution to British Health History During the War" including various data and charts based on her records. The most influential figures of these infographic figures explain the effects of three death causes: preventable disease, fight against wounds and all other causes.
