The Saturday Institute - Epidemics: Past and Present
We will discuss how epidemics affected communities like Middletown as well as the nation as a whole. And we will address the question: Are we prepared for the next pandemic? The day will end with a bus tour to local places associated with epidemics and will feature stories of Middletown victims and the doctors and nurses who fought to save them.
Saturday, November 1, 2014, 9:15 am-3pm, Allbritton Center, Room 311 | $110
