THE SMALLPOX EPIDEMIC 1883- LEPIDEMI LAVERET
April 15, 2020 by admin

In 1883, the Seychelles was struck with an epidemic of smallpox. On June 5, 1883, HMS Undine arrived in Port Victoria from Zanzibar. Aboard the ship was a passenger who had contracted the virulent disease. Wrongfully diagnosed as chickenpox, the disease soon spread across town and suburban neighbourhoods killing dozens of people and creating panic among the population.
