摘要
19世纪英国传染与反传染派之间围绕流行病传染、环境卫生和隔离检疫有效性等问题展开激烈辩论。到19世纪中叶,主张通过改善环境来预防疾病的反传染派的观点获得较大支持,为旨在预防疾病的社会行动提供了依据。尽管如此,传染论并未消失。到19世纪中后期,随着传染论和细菌理论的最终崛起,反传染论逐渐开始衰落。对疾病的生物学、病理学和流行病学的详细知识被视为卫生行动的基础,公共卫生理念也因此变得更加科学和完善。
In the 19th century,there were heated debates between the contagionists and the anti-contagionists in Britain centred on the spread of epidemics,environmental health,and the effectiveness of isolation and quarantine.By the mid-19th century,the views of anti-contagionists,which advocated for environmental improvement as a means to prevent disease,gained significant support and provided a rationale for the social actions aimed at disease prevention.Nevertheless,contagionism has not disappeared.By the mid to late 19th century,with the ultimate rise of contagionism and germ theory,anti-contagionism entered a period of gradual decline.Detailed knowledge of the biology,pathology,and epidemiology of diseases was seen as the basis for health action,making public health more scientific and comprehensive.
