When the world could not speak Octavia E. Butler’s, “Speech Sounds”, an apocalyptic story that portrays how disease has caused the ability to speak impossible and has shattered society and causes many to die from the disease or its latent effects. The loss of speech could impact a society to the point where only the desire to survive is the main focus of human existence. History records periods were naturally occurring diseases have caused unimaginable suffering and the death of millions. These periods involved a slow progressive process that ended in a relatively short period, for instance, The Plague of Europe lasted from 1348 to 1351 and the “death toll throughout Europe was at least 25 million out of a total population of 40 million” (Bugl par.16).” During these times the knowledge of the disease process was unknown because the science of medicine was not as developed as it is today. While “Plague” is still present today it does not affect the speech of those who contract the disease.
Vlad the Impaler used his gruesome tactics to stop the Ottoman Empire. Vlad would use tactics like putting his enemies on wooden stakes to give them a slow painful death. Placing your enemies or anyone on stakes would cause them to sink down the stake until the stake pops out of your neck, throat, or mouth.

If you were to only watch the news on television and nothing else, whether it is CNN, Fox, NBC, ABC, or CBS, you could be easily convinced that everyone you meet will try to kill you, the world is a complete cesspool, and every country on this planet is in a state of complete chaos. No matter what you do, some type of death or tragedy is right around the corner, waiting to jump out and end it all. Let’s take a few moments and step back into reality. We all know that too much sun exposure to the skin can cause Melanoma; E. coli can be transmitted by the consumption of dirty food; you can contract Lyme disease from an infected deer tick; and Epidermal Computer Rot, well, I’m not sure what that is, but how likely are you to contract any of the mentioned ailments or diseases? The likelihood of someone contracting a fatal disease is not the point; bad things happen to people all of the time, some of them can be avoided and some cannot.
As many people used river water as their source of drinking water, the disease spread with ease.” ("Diseases in industrial cities in the Industrial Revolution" 1).

Because so many people were being cramped together in small spaces as a result of urban growth, sanitation was terrible and the drinking water became contaminated with sewage. “Smallpox made a major re-occurrence in industrial cities even after Edward Jenner’s vaccine. The reason was simple.

The first fact was mass vaccination and availability of vaccine in each country. The second fact was development of surveillance systems to detect and contain cases and outbreaks (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2002). According to
