Fear & Fever: Living and dying with typhoid in Dublin (Exhibition)

Come and explore the history of typhoid in Dublin. Explore the personal experiences of patients and medics during a time when germs and vaccinations were relatively unknown. See how typhoid was perceived, treated and prevented using a mixture of archival, audio and material objects from the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland and beyond!

No booking required - just show up on the day!

Part of the collaboration between Royal College of Physicians of Ireland Heritage Centre and the joint IRC/AHRC-funded Typhoid, Cockles & Terrorism: How a Disease Shaped Modern Dublin exhibition series - for more information visit www.typhoidland.org.
