EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Army, U.S. Army Medical School; Typhoid Vaccine, 1917," captures a significant moment in medical history during the First World War. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, depicts a laboratory worker in full protective gear administering a typhoid vaccine to a soldier. The scene takes place at the U.S. Army Medical School, likely part of the extensive efforts to prevent the spread of diseases among troops during the war. The laboratory worker, dressed in a long-sleeved white coat and gloves, holds a glass vial of the vaccine in one hand and a syringe in the other. The soldier, wearing a military uniform and a protective mask, looks calm as he receives the injection. The photograph also shows various laboratory equipment and glass negatives in the background, adding to the scientific atmosphere of the scene. The importance of this photograph lies in its documentation of the critical role of medical advancements during the First World War. Typhoid fever was a common disease during this time, and the development and distribution of the typhoid vaccine were crucial in preventing its spread among soldiers. This photograph serves as a reminder of the dedicated efforts made by medical personnel and researchers to ensure the health and safety of the military during wartime. The Harris & Ewing Collection, housed at the Library of Congress, includes thousands of photographs that capture various aspects of American life during the early 20th century. This photograph, in particular, offers a unique glimpse into the home front during the First World War and the importance of medical advancements in protecting soldiers and civilians alike.
