| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Report of the committee appointed to investigate the causes and extent of the late extraordinary sickness and mortality in the town of Mobile" is a scientific publication authored by a committee of individuals in 1820. This report examines a significant outbreak of sickness and mortality in Mobile, Alabama, likely during the early 19th century. The document focuses on analyzing local health and environmental conditions to understand the reasons behind the notable occurrences of fever and disease within the town. The report meticulously outlines the various contributing factors to the outbreak, identifying neglected sanitary conditions across the town, particularly around the wharves and docks. The committee presents evidence of stagnant water, decayed organic matter, and other refuse that accumulated due to poor maintenance and extreme weather conditions. They elaborate on how these factors, coupled with a specific series of weather events—a drought followed by heavy rains—created a breeding ground for epidemic diseases like yellow fever. Emphasizing the human element, the authors express concern over the behaviors of the populace and the lack of medical care that exacerbated the situation, ultimately leading to a prolonged state of sickness and high mortality rates.
