EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures a significant moment in Puerto Rico's history. Taken in 1938, the image showcases a doctor conducting an examination on a patient for hookworm at a health center in San Juan. The Puerto Rico Resettlement Administration played a crucial role in providing medical care to the local population during this time. The composition of the photo highlights the seriousness of the situation as it focuses on the doctor closely examining the patient's stomach. The intensity and concentration on both their faces reveal the importance of this medical procedure. It is evident that public health was a top priority, especially considering hookworm infestations were prevalent at that time. Photographer Edwin Rosskam beautifully captures this intimate scene within an interior setting, emphasizing its authenticity and significance. The details captured by Rosskam allow viewers to witness firsthand how early medical examinations were conducted with limited resources but unwavering dedication. This photograph serves as a reminder of Puerto Rico's resilience and determination to provide essential healthcare services even during challenging times. It stands as a testament to both the progress made in public health initiatives and also highlights ongoing issues faced by communities worldwide when it comes to infectious diseases such as hookworms. Granger Art on Demand presents this historical print, allowing us to reflect upon our past while appreciating advancements made in healthcare today.
