 * //Everybody feared the cholera disease during the industrial revolution. It has killed thousands of people, and yet, the disease was searching for more victims.//**

An attack of cholera is sudden and painful – though not necessarily fatal. In London it is thought 7000 people died of the disease in the 1831-32 outbreak which represented a 50% death rate of those who caught it. 15,000 people died in London in the 1848-49 outbreak. The disease usually affected those in a city’s poorer areas, though the rich did not escape this disease. Disease caused more deaths than anything during the Industrial Revolution. If somebody changed the way they lived or their working conditions, disease spread more rapidly.
 * //Cholera was discovered in England during 1831 killing 30,000 people. The disease mostly occured in over populated cities, unsanitary water and poor housing conditions. Many people called the disease outbreak "King Cholera" because the way it controlled people.

Everybody was afraid of cholera. Unsanitary water was the biggest cause of cholera. This happened by sewage coming in contact with water. People used river water as drinking water, but they didn't know it was contaminted. So this caused the disease to spread without any problems. People were living and working in constant filth and germ infested enviroments during the industrial revolution, so health was an everlasting issue.//**


 * //Cholera is not always deathly. In London an estimate of 7,000 people died of this disease. It was about 50% of the death rate for people who caught the disease. Cholera usually affected the poorer areas in the cities, but that didn't mean that the rich could not get the disease.//**


 * //Cholera is very rare nowadays, but you can still get it due to poor housing conditions and unsanitary water. So as you can see, many people have died from this disease and has made a change in the world.//**
