These men were not the type to do hard labor works. Men in Jamestown didn’t produce any food and depended on the food supply they brought from England, which didn’t last long. Fortunately, colonists in Jamestown got food supply from the Native there, which helped Jamestown to survive the first winter. Moreover, colonists in Jamestown also suffered from diseases. Besides, another major problem encountered by the colonists there was polluted water.
He was very important in some ways, but in some he wasn’t. He was often known as “The Father of Immunology”. This is because he has saved more lives than anyone else before him has. One way in which he wasn’t so important was that he didn’t understand the science of germs, and he didn’t know how it worked, so no more vaccines were made at that time, because no-one knew about germs and bacteria. Also, the idea was very slow to be accepted because many people such as inoculators were opposed to it because they thought they would lose business and people thought that something could go wrong or they could die, so they didn’t want to use it.
An unfamiliar climate, as well as brackish water supply and lack of food, conditions possibly aggravated by a prolonged drought; led to disease and death. Many of the original colonists were upper-class Englishmen, and the colony lacked
It didn’t rain much, obviously. Except the drought wasn’t the key reason to why there weren’t many crops to eat. Too many of the first settlers who came were gentlemen- men who didn’t like to get their hands dirty. There were little to no farmers washed upon the shore, so everyone was pretty much out of luck. But they did have their ways.
Paul’s rowboat is like the colonists. They are weak and they have lack of resources. Also, they have a lack of experience. So just like Paul’s rowboat, the small, weal colonists have no idea about the British. They’re Paul’s rowboat to “The Somerset, British man-of-war.
There weren’t antibiotics and other ways to help cure these illnesses, and the ways they did have weren’t effective enough to stop people dying. In addition there are massive heath care services available today which weren’t available in 1900 to help ill or diseased people such as the National Health Service (NHS). Another reason is that the standard of living in 1900 may have had an impact on the death rate. Many people had large families to provide for and they usually lived in small houses that may not be fit for the amount of people living in them. Today, the family size has decreased and this has stopped the deaths in the family as illnesses and diseases aren’t transmitted to one another quickly as they live together in a more fit environment.
However, they never lead to the considerable improvements he expected as they were somewhat incomplete and many were not satisfied with them. In 1861 Alexander II emancipated the serfs; they were freed from their feudal obligations and allotted land for their needs. They were given freedom from noble interference and control of their lives, as well as being freed from fear of being forced to do military service. The serfs were given very little land and that which they received was of poor quality. The system of land distribution was unfair and most peasants received 4% less land than they had rented before, many received much less.
When someone was so poor that he couldn’t afford a horse, a tent, or blanket, he would, in that case, receive it all as a gift. We were too uncivilized to give great importance to private property. We didn’t know any kind of money and consequently, the value of a human being was not determined by this wealth. We had no written laws laid down, no lawyers, and no politicians, therefore we were not able to cheat and swindle one another. We were really in bad shape before the white men arrived and I don’t know how to explain how we were able to manage without these fundamentals things that (so they tell us) are so necessary for a civilized society.” This quote was stated by, John (Fire) Lame Deer, a wichasha wakan (The Holy Man).
They lived in their own filth and waste because there were no sewers or drainage to take it away, even when they threw it out of the house it would drain into the nearby rivers. They would then wash in the river and take water from it to drink, resulting in diseases that sometimes ended in death. Young children often died from diseases that could have been prevented but due to poor living conditions and undernourishment their immune systems could not fight the disease therefore the infant mortalities were high and the life expectancy was low. Medicine was not very advanced and getting medical treatment was difficult as there were not many doctors around and it
