| 總結: | This article is a historical approach to the 1779 smallpox epidemic and its different manifestations both in public health and in Mexico City's demography. It introduces new statistical data which reveals, beyond testimonies, the epidemic's impact and consequences, both in schoolchildren and adults throughout the city's different parishes during September-November, 1779. Further, this research reveals an association between the epidemic and a food crisis through the effects of weather and low crops in 1778 and June, 1779. |
