Mary Had a Little Typhoid [from American History Hotline]

from Founding Son: John Quincy's America · host iHeartPodcasts

And everywhere that Mary went, the typhoid was sure to go.  The story of Mary Mallon (AKA Typhoid Mary) is one we're living every day to a small degree: the balance between public safety and personal liberty. Luckily for us, we'll never be imprisoned for being an symptomatic carrier of a disease. Well, never say never.  To learn more about the life of Mary Mallon we call up author Susan Campbell Bartoletti (Terrible Typhoid Mary: A True Story of the Deadliest Cook in America). Why was Mary's story so popular in the early 1900s? And why is her name so familiar even today?   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
