suppose you were the mayor of new york city in the 1890s/early 1900s and were convinced by dr. trudeau’s experiments that in your city a transmissible bacterium was causing tuberculosis and that poor living conditions and inadequate diet were adversely affecting the ability of hundreds of people to fight the infection. what sort of public policies might you try to enact in order to combat the public health menace? what obstacles might you encounter?
