Title: | Como se preveniu uma epidemia: a profilaxia da tuberculose na primeira metade do século XX em Portugal | Other Titles: | How an epidemic was prevented: prophylaxis against tuberculosis in the first half of the 20th century in Portugal | Authors: | Vieira, Ismael | Keywords: | Epidemia; Tuberculose; Profilaxia; Epidemic; Tuberculosis; Prophylaxis | Issue Date: | 2021 | Serial title, monograph or event: | Revista Portuguesa de Historia | Volume: | 52 | Abstract: | A historiografia da saúde é consensual a
considerar a tuberculose como a doença infetocontagiosa
mais letal da contemporaneidade.
Muito se tem escrito acerca das correntes de
pensamento médico sobre a tuberculose a par
dos vários tratamentos, incluindo o sanatorial,
mas pelo contrário as estratégias preventivas
têm tido menor expressão. Com este trabalho
pretendemos analisar as medidas profiláticas
mais relevantes destinadas ao combate à
tuberculose em Portugal, empreendidas por
várias instituições e personalidades ligadas ao
problema na primeira metade do século XX. There is a consensus in health historiography that tuberculosis is the most lethal contemporary infectious disease. Much has been written about the currents of medical thought on tuberculosis along with the various treatments, including sanatorial, but preventive strategies have had less expression. This paper aims to analyze the most relevant prophylactic measures to combat tuberculosis in Portugal, undertaken by various institutions and personalities linked to the problem in the first half of the twentieth century. |
