In the teeming city, thousands or even millions of people live, work and die in close contact with each other. Doctors, governments and ordinary citizens have struggled against disease and death from poor hygiene, pollution and dreadful epidemics. Explore Library holdings that show this endless battle to keep the city functioning and keep Londoners alive and healthy.

Speaker:
Chris Hilton, Senior Archivist, Wellcome Library
