Historian compares Civil War medicine to WWII at Hood College
Civil War field hospitals and World War II medical care are similar in rudimentary setup, historian Ed Bearss said. He noted plasma use in WWII reduced shock deaths, while Civil War doctors struggled with shock and basic stabilization before evacuation. Bearss, wounded in the Pacific, cited personal family Civil War losses at Shiloh and Gettysburg. Activities at Hood College run through Sunday with about 130 attendees.
