Summary

[edit]
Description
English: From the collections of the Medical History Museum, Gothenburg Sweden. A case with six different medicines against cholera. The open bottle in the föreground contained copper. When cholera came to Gothenburg in August 1834 it was the first time the sickness appeared in Sweden. The cause was unknown, as was a cure and how to stop transmission. Around 12000 people died in the country's first epidemic.
Svenska: Från samlingar på Medicinhistoriska museet Göteborg. Ett etui med sex olika mediciner mot kolera. Den öppnade flaskan närmast i bild innehöll grundämnet koppar (Cuprum). När koleran kom till Göteborg i augusti 1834 var det första gången sjukdomen drabbade landet. Ingen visste säkert vad sjukdomen berodde på, hur den botades eller hur den kunde stoppas. Omkring 12 000 personer dog i den första epidemin i landet.
