- Great epidemics constituted one of the many important factors shaping the fate of human societies, from prehistory to modern times. Long-lasting pandemic epidemics, covering large areas and causing incalculable losses, were of great importance in history. They contributed to a previously unprecedented measurability, and thus a significant decrease in the population density. They left their mark on the political, economic, and economic structure of many cultures. It is worth noting that the most common diseases in epidemic form include syphilis, leprosy, bubonic plague, typhoid and spotted fever, smallpox, measles, influenza, tuberculosis, cholera, distemper, and dysentery. The vast majority of these came to light during the medieval and early modern periods, when hygiene and the general standard of living raised many concerns. The paper given was written to analyze the counteracting epidemic of smallpox in Poland in 1963.
