Yellow fever fears and quarantine actions spread
Reports from Mobille and New Orleans describe health authorities barring physicians from infected districts, arresting Dr Linsey near Gulfport, and quarantines. Kansas City rejects the state board on yellow fever, while New Orleans weighs immigrant labor shifts and rising Italian migration concerns amid fear and prejudice. Washington issues a circular urging mosquito control and patient barriers, stressing drainage and immediate mosquito barriers around fever patients for three days.
Quarantine Steps Considered for Yellow Fever Regions
Missouri state board of health met to impose a rigid quarantine on infected districts in the south. Railways and steamboats would require health certificates for all entering Missouri. Conveyances with sick passengers or lacking certificates could be detained for five days or until infection risk is cleared.
